Food for thought.

I’ve been getting fairly pissed off this week re negativity or ‘constructive’ criticism as it was described to me re my training this week.

I had someone message me, (that I didn’t know) saying that I should use resistance bands in my work outs and I’d ‘maybe not have such a flat ass.’ I’m all for trying new things but personally don’t like resistance bands and have tried and find I can get results without. This came from someone who though doing a course in exercise, probably hasn’t done half the reasearch I’ve done in the past 6 months nor do they know me and how my body reacts to different exercises.

I was also told I’d get ‘too big’ and ‘look unnatractive’ if I kept lifting. It’s not my aim to get big, I’m trying to maintain strength and lose unnecessary fat to allow me to be faster on the hockey field. Do I want to be hench? No. Do I want to be strong and improve myself in every way I can yes.

I’m all for advice. But it’s how you put it across. Social media can be excellent for empowering eachother but it can also be used in the contrary.

Thank goodness for the band of girls on there inspiring me every day. (Claire and Lauren and all you other lady lifters.)

I’ll keep lifting weights AND running.
