The Training Myth That Keeps Beginners Stuck For Years

You have almost certainly believed it. Most people do.

There is one idea that quietly sabotages more beginners than laziness ever could, and it sounds sensible, which is exactly why it is so sticky.

The myth is that you must wait until you are fit enough to start. So people plan, and prepare, and buy the gear, and never quite begin.

Here is the twist: you get fit by starting badly. Every strong person you admire was once wobbly, breathless and slightly embarrassed on day one.

Fitness is not the entry fee. It is the reward. Start clumsy, start slow, start unsure, but for the love of everything, just start.
