"When I started at the gym, I had zero experience. I never played any sports in school and felt uncomfortable being surrounded by people who seemed to already know everything."
It was really daunting, so I decided to start with a personal trainer. Instead of looking up online at a bunch of sources with conflicting opinions, I started with Alli as my starting off point. At first, I was really nervous. I felt like everyone knew that I was a newbie. But as I spent more and more time with Alli, not only did I gain knowledge and valuable instruction, I also gained confidence as a fellow gym goer. She helped me see how we all might be on varying levels but at the end of the day, we are all focused on ourselves and trying to be better. Without her, I probably wouldn't have the discipline and the peace of mind that I needed to form a habit in a foreign place.
