Number One Mistake

Whether you are a runner, cyclist, weight lifter, or you enjoy other forms of exercise, one of the biggest mistakes made is being self-conscious while exercising. It's very temping to look around the gym, or even your running group, and size yourself up to others, whether it be in appearance or physical abilities. I think what is important to remember is that those "elite" athletes were once in your shoes. No one walks into the gym and squats 400 lbs or runs an 18 minute 5k without A LOT of training. So don't be embarrassed by your workouts or your physique, with hard work and dedication you can become the person that others turn to for fitness advice.
