If you could give any advice for someone starting training, what would it be?
Often the most challenging part is just getting started because your mind can sometimes give you a million reasons not to do something. However, I’ve found that once I start, I immediately feel better and more accomplished. Don’t underestimate the power in taking the first step, that’s almost half the battle. From there it’s great to set yourself goals of some sort that you want to try and hit. It could be as little as ‘I'm going to get to 2 sessions this week’ or ‘I'm going to try and go a little bit heavier this week.’ Consistency and goal setting play huge roles in your training. It's also important to remember that you may not see results immediately, but you definitely will over time through commitment and discipline.
