This week is mental health awareness week so I thought I’d shed some light on the importance of movement and physical fitness on your mental health…
I’ve had numerous chats with clients over the last few weeks, without even being prompted by this topic, about how much better they feel after a session, how their mood and energy levels have improved day to day and their general wellbeing has improved massively!
Not only can I see this in my clients from the change in mood at the start to the end of a session, but I also feel this myself hugely.
It’s a massive factor of why I got into the gym in the first place, why I continue to train and why I love to teach others how to do the same 💓
There is nothing better than training on the days when you need it most and the lift of weight off your shoulders and spring in your step as you leave the gym!
When a client leaves a session with a smile on their face and a ‘thank you I needed that’ I know I’ve done something right ❤️ (even if during the session they’re cursing me🤣)
Of course exercise alone isn’t going to fix all your problems and if you’re seriously struggling please do seek professional help 🥰 but if you’re not already just try to get out and get moving your body, it doesn’t have to be the gym, it could be a walk or playing a sport, whatever it is you enjoy & I promise you you’ll feel better afterwards ❤️
