1.Confidence
At
first you may perceive going to the gym as a tedious trip to
be amongst a lot of really fit looking people and that can make you feel
very shy. I know I did! But, as soon as you get into a workout you begin
to notice, no one cares. Everyone is too busy working on his or her own body to
look at you. For me this really helped because now I feel like I'm part of
some fitness group and I really fit in. Confidence is something you
gain immensely when you start going to the gym and changing your
body. Now you too can be one of those 'cool' gym members.
2.
Gym fashion
One of
the greatest perks of going to the gym regularly is the excuse to
open up another shopping budget your gym gear. Trainers, yoga pants, sports
bras, tops, sweat bands, sweaters, you name it; gym fashion is such a cool
thing. My favourite places for gym clothes are Nike, Adidas, Lululemon, Victoria's Secret (my
all time favourite), and Under Armour.
3.
Better, Healthier Skin
As you improve your overall health, there are other things apart from weight loss and toning that come around. Your skin's health will significantly improve the fitter and healthier you become. Less breakouts, smoother, brighter skin is what to expect. Who wouldn't want that? Partnered with a brilliant skincare routine and beautiful make0-up (if you like), you can take full advantage of your clearer skin.

4.
Meeting New People
I'm
not saying you'll meet the love of your life in the gym, but
your bound to find people you have a lot in common with, so there's a
chance you'll make some really nice friends. I went from knowing absolutely no
one to knowing practically everyone that works out at the same time as me,
which is pretty early. So, if you like a little chat before or after
working out, then meeting new people is a perk you'll love.
5.
New Body, New Clothes
If
you plan on going to the gym to tone up then this may not apply you as
much because your not dropping dress sizes. However, if like me you
want to go there to loose some weight then think of the endless shopping
opportunities! I love to shop for new clothes, so when I lost weight I had
practically a whole new wardrobe to buy. This means Zara, Urban Outfitters,
TopShop, Mango, Asos, H&M and so many more are now quite important for
you. Show off your toned new figure with a new outfit or a special new
piece to add to your collection, you'll feel great!
I
hope this has spurred some of you on to finally take the plunge
and join your local gym to not only change your body and lifestyle,
but your skin, wardrobe and shopping experience. It's so fun, trust
me. Working out doesn't have to be a sweaty mess that you don't look forward
to! Thanks again to Guilianna for letting me write a post for
her wonderful blog, I look forward to seeing some of you over on my
