    The only time I will notice you is if you were on the stair master long... "dang it, got to wait" but I would then go and find something else. Usually I would get distracted with some other machine and forget entirely.

    Thinking on the newb..." you got this....we all gotta start somewhere, just get in do your thang and pat yourself on the back and leave feeling amazing "

    Honestly I'm kinda in my own world at the gym ....throw my earbuds in and just do my thing.

    I usually *am* the newbie....and am nervous I look like a newbie. And I see women with their "routine" without papers or a phone plan and I wonder how to get to that point rather than feeling like I'm wandering around aimlessly.

    But when I do see someone who looks new to fitness or wellness, I think, "Way to go! Don't feel bad or embarrassed, because You. Are. Doing. Something!!!"

    We’ve all been the newbie at one point in time and have felt scared, insecure and self conscious. I’m too busy trying to perfect my imperfectly perfect form but I’ve learned that most people are helpful. If you are following a program and carry it around with you, good for you. It will keep you on track.

    I'm usually thinking one of two things, 1. Who's on my deadlift platform/squat rack/bench? or 2. What moron didn't unrack my deadlift platform/squat rack/bench.

    I'm a simple girl.

    'Stay. in. This. Interval. If you survive this interval, you can quit. Be here - you've done this before. Just get to the buzzer.
    Where the *kitten* is that buzzer?'

    ....if you are a lady and thinking of wearing tights: make sure that if you bend over they don't disappear.
    ...if your an old guy please do not spread your bum cheeks in front of the hand dryer.

    I think you're working hard and deserve mad respect just for being there. I hope to see your face every day!

    Also I'm thinking @ everyone in the gym: "please no one talk to me please no one talk to me" lol

    Well, I usually go to the gym at 5:30-6am. I am usually only thinking about my my bed. Oh, and coffee.

    I've been going to my gym for 6-7 months now, my first gym membership - I was self conscious at first but now I feel free to just unapologetically check myself out in the mirrors all day, and it's what everyone else there was doing the day I showed up too :smile:
