Gain Self Confidence! (2024/174)

The great benefit of a training routine is that you improve your health and fitness.

If you go to a gym, you meet like-minded people and enjoy mutual encouragement. 

That brings self-satisfaction (maybe a smug feeling too, of being one of the better specimens! But why not?).

The important gain is SELF CONFIDENCE...

Not being 'afraid' of your body image any more: yes, you can get that shirt off without anxiety about what people think.

Is that good? Should be!


 Best sign we've seen in a gym for a long time!

Today's lads have reached that point : happy to be seen in public, happy to post images on Insta or YouTube vids or whatever... this could be YOU...

 More on our favourite sport. Before the real stuff, though, a short sequence on how playtime can go wrong on the high bar! I don't have the first section, but you'll get the idea... The lesson is 'don't wear loose shorts on a bar' - I've had that problem if you don't keep clear of the bat when you should!   And, of course, things don't always go as well as they should: Random pics now - some action, some resting... A bit of specific training: Finally, a bit more gymnast fun stuff to finish - and this one doesn't go wrong!
