Lacking Motivation & Confidence? You’re Not the Only One.

Trigger Warning: Covid-19.

Lacking motivation, drive and focus when it comes to exercise?

You’re not the only one.

The last couple of years, to put it lightly - has certainly been challenging.

The world experienced something we never saw coming and no-one was prepared for. 

As a passionate fitness professional and gym owner, my heart was broken as I watched and felt the industry fall beneath me. 

I am someone that thrives in an uplifting group environment and I use exercise as a positive outlet for my physical, mental & social health, just like many others.

Myself and my team at LFA all share the same passion and that is - to help others. When we could see the closure upon us back in March 2020, we knew that our mission was going to get a whole lot harder to achieve.

Amongst the pressure of trying to stay positive, at home online workouts and the fear of going to the supermarket, a lot of us felt our health at an all-time low. 

According to a survey conducted by MindBody it showed that


87% of fitness clubs re-opened after the closures, but only 40% of members returned to their gym, while 20% of members stopped exercising all together!

As we come out the other side, I am still seeing more and more clubs close their doors for a final time as the industry continues to feel the knock-on effects of the pandemic.

Although I can feel and see the reduction of moving bodies in our space at LFA, I truly believe at the moment, my business is one of the lucky ones to still be operating. Our mission remains the same, and currently is stronger than ever.

The 60% of non-returning members from the Mindbody Survey were then asked their reasoning for not signing back up to their gym and

over half (57%) said it was due to lack of confidence.

Our aim behind our new 6W Program Level Up is to help as many women as we can step into their power. For too long now we have been stuck in this comfortable, yet uncomfortable sedentary lifestyle, pushed back with reoccurring sickness and fatigue and ultimately repressed from reaching and feeling our fullest potential. 

So, from me to you, it’s time to take the leap. Because if not now…when?

As a business owner and a Mum, I know how challenging it can be to prioritise yourself, but at the end of the day YOU are the only person that is able to change & shape your future.

Leave the past in the past and take control of your happiness. Level up and step into your power. Why? Because life get’s a whole lot better when get to experience your new potential. 

Thanks for reading!
