We talk about change all the time, and how we need to react to change.
Let’s just think of change with some of you, many of you have just had a baby, and fighting to get back into shape and the pressure of looking after a little one 24 hours a day. Self-confidence, self-esteem all take a knock and this is your time and you have to make it count because you have a babysitter looking after the little one, getting into shape again is vital but you need to get through these big changes in your life again to create massive progress, but it takes time but you need to see it through.
Let’s think of your first day exercising after a knee operation, all the change that needs to happen to get back to your best and beyond. You feel uncertain and change and challenges are coming your way, and you need to be strong to withstand all this change to see you through to full health.
Let’s think about some of you approaching retirement, massive change and feeling the need to get even fitter as you get older, and the need to enjoy retirement as a very active person who can make the most of it. This age makes you realise that health is everything, some of your friends may be suffering from ill health and you awareness is at an all time high. Your time is important and you need to embrace change which is tough.
Let’s think of the pain of back surgery, and the thought you would never exercise ever again, what did that change in your life feel like and what did it do to your mind? How did you create real change and get back off the floor and achieve so much and get through all those darkest moments? You had two choices, either you lay down and take it or you take the road of rarefied air that not many take, and you get back to full health through many battles, setbacks and overcome pain of the highest order.
Let’s think of having blows to your health, both your body and mental health, when it seems as if you can’t recover and the only thing that will change things is massive change in your habits, your everyday actions, and hoping your body will stand up to all of these positive changes and you will come out the other side a new person, and so many of you have, and be ready to take on the world again!!!
We as a business and gym go through change ALL the time, we have to react to all the challenges you face and rapidly learn on the job, through scientific research, and provide you with some of the challenging questions you keep asking, which makes our place a fascinating, challenging but ultimately highly rewarding environment to be every day.
Thanks for being a huge part of it, stretching us so much everyday and allowing us to learn so much everyday both at the gym and through worldwide masters of certain conditions, and giving us experience and on the job training that most places never get.
Thanks for making us better full stop, and helping you get to a whole new level if you keep giving us the opportunity! Change is inevitable as you go through many stages in life but it’s good if you react positively and grow as an individual through each unique experience!!
