POSITIVE GYM CULTURE IS ON THE RISE

When you hit the gym, do you feel welcomed and supported? Or does it sometimes feel like you're in a competition with everyone else there? Well, there's a new trend that's taking over the fitness world, and it's all about promoting positive gym culture and uplifting others. It's a refreshing change from the old days of gym culture, which could be pretty negative and judgmental.

So, what does positive gym culture actually mean? Basically, it's about creating an environment where everyone feels encouraged and supported, no matter what their fitness level or goals are. This means celebrating each other's successes, helping out when someone needs it, and being kind and supportive.

If you want to be part of this movement, there are a few things you can do. First, lead by example! Be friendly, approachable, and supportive of others. You don't have to be a fitness pro to make a difference. Maybe offer to spot someone on a heavy lift, or give a high five to someone who just finished a tough workout.

Another way to promote positive gym culture is by building a sense of community. You could organize group workouts or classes, or even just strike up a conversation with someone you see regularly at the gym. By creating a sense of community, we can break down the barriers that often exist between people in the gym and create a more welcoming and inclusive environment.

And finally, be mindful of your language and attitudes. Try not to make negative or judgmental comments about yourself or others. Avoid making comparisons or putting others down. And always be accepting of different fitness levels, body types, and goals.

Overall, promoting positive gym culture and uplifting others is all about creating a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone. Whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or just starting out, you can make a difference by being kind, encouraging, and supportive of those around you. So let's work together to create a positive gym culture that celebrates our differences, lifts each other up, and helps us all achieve our fitness goals. After all, that's what the #TITANSTRONG movement is all about!

You would be surprised at how much negativity is in most gyms (or maybe not) but i do what i can to help anyone and everyone each time i go. I am always proud to support an awesome company that feels the same!

I feel like social media now a days is the biggest advisory while also helping the positive gym culture. It’s letting so many people who might be nervous to start seeing that it’s ok and people are there to help. However it’s also allowing those negative people a platform to intimidate and make fun of people.

I recently transferred from my university gym to a private gym and it has been amazing. The staff in site and the other people enjoying the gym really help motivate me. I recently failed a squat attempt and had several people come over ask if I was OK. They then helped me repack the weight and pushed me to give it another go. The support they gave me was the last little I bit I need to land a new pr!

So I can relate to this because I use to feel like I was in competition with others when I went to the gym, I would see someone bigger than me and compare them because I wanted to look just like them. Every time I did this it was like I was bringing myself down instead of uplifting myself, I’ve learned over the years to focus on myself and stop comparing myself with other people. I’m always supportive to everyone in the gym, I try my best to encourage my friends when they are at the gym, when they start to bring themself down I lift them back up by encouraging them and telling my testimony on how I started lifting, where I use to be when I started VS where I am now. This is how I made so many friends at the gym!
