    My dad just texted me while at work that hospice was being called in for end of life phasing out for my 83 yr old Gramma....As I was bawling and thinking of  my future without her while racing to beat the clock to the hospital to try to  say my final goodbyes, your podcast gave me the tiny bit of normalcy and comfort to make it...thank you MindPump, love you guys. Wish me comfort and strength fam, I'm going to need it.

    What most gyms are missing that scares off beginners is a lack of community, imo. They walk in scared no one says hi and they hop the the treadmill and leave.

    Weight training is not simple. Most people are clueless including many long time lifters.. Consistency can mitigate that but I can honestly say I didn&apos;t really know what I was doing until I put my ego aside and started learning.

    For that beginning discussion about the new year and gyms, UC Planet Fitness advertised on the new year like crazy and that&apos;s when they try to make it look like they are lowering the costs to start up so they really invest heavily on that gym version of the Black Friday.

    I&apos;m trying to trust the process... just stopped working with a trainer because she couldn&apos;t explain why she chose any of the exercises for me. I&apos;m a 50yo peri-menopausal female and she had me doing a front/ back split (what?!) with no squats or leg press! &nbsp;It just doesn&apos;t make sense! What a waste of money. <br> &nbsp;I can use all the help i can get.

    So I have been focusing more on fitness lately and have made progress. Why I quit was due to two major things: Vacations and injury. Those really got me off my groove. (Vacation was 2 weeks)<br><br>Also Bodyweight fitness works because I did mostly just that and lost alot of weight, but it was alot that we did in a group setting. Tough work outs.

    Most beginners quit because they are more focused on the outcome than enjoying the journey.

    Are we just making things up to talk about at this point?

    Le test d&apos;anxiété de Clara Hartley fournit-il des conseils personnalisés ou les recommandations sont-elles les mêmes pour tout le monde ? J&apos;ai vu des témoignages de personnes évoquant des problèmes très différents, et je me demande donc à quel point l&apos;explication finale est réellement personnalisée.
