Keri McKibbin Personal Training

Stress at work, negativity, being miserable every day are all things I hear at the gym-EVERY DAY! 

Fortunately I hear the great stories how you conquered those feelings of anxiety, stress, outrage, frustration, in a rut BY seeking solace at the gym and getting a workout in EVEN if you didn’t feel like it at all and you were putting it off because of such darkness and such hopelessness.

Your workout absorbs the stress and somehow crushes those horrible feelings to bring clarity in your mind, and lifts you back to a place where you can actually get stuff done.

You often tell me its better than any pharmaceutical drug, pill etc that promises much but often makes the situation worse long term.

I urge you to continue to tell me the great stories, to put the work in and accept the huge benefits that will definitely come from the process ever single time.

CONGRATULATIONS to everyone going through a very difficult time and dealing with it the tried and tested way to make you feel and perform better, when it would have been easier to quit at times. You all deserve massive credit for doing what works and what has zero side effects.

This weather is perfect-for getting down to the grind again.

Lifting weights is hard, but does get easier the more you do it.

Getting out of  breath is uncomfortable, but magically makes us feel better afterwards.

Aches and pains happen in our body, but put some sessions together and suddenly they begin to ease and get better.

When we do all these things and nourish ourselves with good natural food making sure we recover well, we sleep better too, meaning full recovery happens and can literally make us a feel like a new person after a long weekend.

Our habits matter.
