Focus on your goals 📈

When starting your fitness journey,

you might feel when you step into the gym and see all the bodybuilder units and feel like you need to look like them

It may feel a bit intimidating,

and can maybe put you off going into the gym

Start off by setting goals in the gym:

🏋️‍♂️ Bench pressing 50kg for 5 sets of 5 reps? Have a plan to build up to 60kg for 5 sets of 5 reps

💪 Looking to do your first pull up? Aim to build up using the resistance bands and slowly go from using heavier (thicker) bands to the lighter (thinner) bands

🙆‍♂️ Looking to work on getting depth on your knee during squats? Focus on bodyweight + mobility stretching

Tackling your goals in the gym whether they be small or big always add up,

They help make your fitness journey that bit more enjoyable and can give you the drive to keep showing up to the gym pushing for your next goal.

RPE - Rate of Perceived Exertion 🏋️‍♂️

You may have heard someone ask you how a set felt on scale of 1-10 how did that feel before?

This is what RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) is,

Scale of 1-10

1 - Feel like you could go all day, pushing a feather

10 - Feels like you’re trying to push a bus, Physically cannot push anymore weight / reps

Lets imagine you’re bench pressing 70kg for 5 reps

You get to the 5th set and feel you could push maybe 2/3 more reps MAX

This is you around that 7 or 8 range of the scale of 1-10

So you decide to increase the weight to 72.5kg

You go for another set of 5 reps and get to the 4th or last rep and feel you physically can’t push for another rep

This will be you at that 10/10 max RPE

TIP:

Every time you train from now, after every set

Ask yourself “how did that feel on a scale of 1-10”

If it feels about 3/10 get that weight up or push for more reps

If it feels about 9/10, increase the weight slightly but with less reps, more reps or

And add it in to your logging app so you can come back next session to bit more data on what to try for a certain exercise

Consistency 📈

One thing that may cause you to struggle with some consistency in your training is not having goals to work towards

This can led to you missing the odd session and before you know it, it’s been few weeks and not been to the gym as much as you had planned

You don’t need to book the next run / event coming up, pick a date:

✅ You want to reach a certain weight goal you feel you want to reach ( holiday, special occasion, on route to event )

✅ You want to smash out a 5km run PB attempt ( work on increasing your mileage, hill sprints, nasal breathing runs )

✅ You want to go for a 1 rep max PB attempt on the Bench press ( work on your lifts surrounding chest, increasing your calories + macros )

Let’s get your consistency back!🙌
