I have joined a gym after wanting to for years but held back by my own phobias. I had a short induction yesterday (its a key style gym where you load programs onto a key, stick those into the machines and away you go) so I really cant go too wrong. But it is still a gym. Filled with healthy people looking very professional and competant. I went today to do my first session on my own, but chickened out completely and ended up ducking into a convieniently starting pilates class, which is fine, and still a big step for me, but how do I overcome this? I'm just scared of looking stupid, and i know if I do it a couple of times I'll be fine but I cant get through the door! I dont know anyone who attends there, so cant go with someone. What can I do? How can I be more of a grown up about this? (I'm 32, and I want to be able to do this). Thank you if you got this far. Bit rambly I know :(
