I can totally identify with what you are going through. I am glad that this post has helped you in some way. It’s a case of practicing undoing the bad habit of believing the negative self-talk verses seeing the bright side.

My hope is that everyone (me included) can master this skill of seeing the good things over the bad.

And I also understand the taking offense thing at clients not liking something. I have the same battle and I used to take it to heart when I got a “dislike” or negative comment on Youtube or here – it’s tough not to take it personally, but most of the time people say these things because of who THEY are, not because you need to change for them. You should only change if you feel you must.

🙂

How much I needed to read this! I have (for about 8 years) been on and off a weight loss rollercoaster. I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t dieting. Lately I’ve just been eating really cleanly and not worrying so much and I’ve been feeling great. THe problem is I stepped on the scales a few days ago (lesson learned – never doing that again) and my weight hadn’t changed. Although I kept telling myself that I was now eating for ‘health’ and not ‘weight loss’ I was so upset and disappointed and thought how unfair it was that I am so healthy and others aren’t and they are leaner than me! Your post rang true on every single point – the past month or so that I’ve been trying not to focus on fat loss I have been so much happier! I have been looking in the mirror at the things I like about myself instead of the negatives. The problem is I let this all slip because of the scales. I also have been getting caught up with comparing myself to others, and trying to conform to what I think people think I should look like (I’m a personal trainer and am not overweight but also do not look like a fitness model). I take it so personally if a client is grumpy or says they don’t like something (eg. boxing). Your post was amazing and so in time for me. Thank you:)

LOL, I know what you mean – maybe a little ignorance on their part by assuming women would need/want the lightest 🙂

Thanks for the advice, when I went to a 3 hour beginners KB class about 3 months ago the instructor wanted to give me a 6kg kb, but I opted for the 8kg. I never know if these male instructors are being kind or patronizing, perhaps the latter.

Hi Edel, I would invest in a heavier KB. 12kg at least and use it for squats, swings and eventually rows and presses. You need to progress the weight you use for single KB work. Females should be swinging a 12kg at least, even from an early stage -8kg won’t do anything for you 🙁 You can always do single arm rows, but if you really want a second KB then maybe wait until you are strong enough to use 2 x 12kg for the rows. Down the line, you will not use 8kg for rows, and having 2 will be a waste. I reckon 12kg will last you longer.

Hope this helps 🙂

Should I buy another 8kg kettle bell for doing renegade rows, get a pull up bar or just stick with the 8kg and upgrade when I can. Any advise?
