One of the most becoming-frequent answers in persons who begin any type of training at gym, home, or outdoors, is “I do it because I want to fffeel good to myself.” And they mark aa very clear posture compared to who go with the evident intention of building muscle or simply keeping fit.
The profile of the ones
giving this reason is usually professional people with much job or family load,
empowered during Covid-19 pandemic, which stress levels are high. In this bunch, there are also who
lost relatives or quite beloved people due to the plague that passed away
dozens of million lives around the world.
There’s no much to explain
from the mental health’s perspective. The power of physical exercise as an emotional balance generator is pretty proved because of the simple reason that the
training makes your hormonal segregation to be more efficient, especially that
avoids or controls conditions like depression or anxiety, and rules your metabolism.
“I already sleep once now from 11 at night to 6 in the morning,” a 30-year-old accountant tells us in Tambograndé, Peru, requesting us to be anonymous. If he has played soccer during much time, the untreated anziety has betrayed him almost without warning. “I ate any time, I didn’t sleep good.” From 154 pounds, he raised to more than 220 pounds! And he’s just 5.6 feet height.
After entering a bunch
training gymnastics and functional, he is
losing weight (he’s around 187 pounds), he has noticed his physical &
mental health has improved, add to this that his mood passed from anger to
laugh and calm. However, when we asked him to pose for some pictures, he
declined: “No, thanks – I just do it because I wanna feel good to myself.”
It’s also like a media
specialist in Piura, Peru, 31 years old, 6 feet height, who from 220 pounds,
today it’s 198 pounds… and decreasing. “I don’t work out for the people to see
me or to admire me but because I feel better to myself,” he repeats. And every
morning, he attend to the gym for his dumbells-&-functional routine. And
testimonials like theirs repeat.
If you’re a trainer, you’ve
already noticed it. Perhaps it disappoints you that, unlike other pupils who
really want to improve their physiques whether for competition or
simple vanity, this bunch doesn’t put that goal foreward.
Don’t get wrong
interpretating they are not interested in growing as visible, what they are
really interested in growing inside. Your job, instead criticizing them for not
being like the others or mistaking to compare them to the pretty muscled pupil
of your class, is raising their personal motivation levels, encouraging them to be a better version of themselves.
Maybe sometimes they need to talk to heal, so we remind you how to proceeed in these times.
As much as they receive this
kind of feedback, it’s probable that you progressively go stimulating their sport-competitive
spirit, and themselves to be who go adding greater exigency levels until
reaching similar or better results than your competition pupils or who work out
to look fit. Don’t get surprised if someday themselves ask you to prepare them
for the next tournament.
