Show Notes

Okay, I feel like it’s time someone said it! There is wayyyy too much fluff on the internet…it’s time that you hear the real, evidence backed information behind anxiety, gym anxiety and how in the world to even manage it?!


If you didn’t know, I LOVE SCIENCE! And I mean in a “it’s what I enjoy reading for fun type of way plus I’m doing a 4 year bachelor degree based in it.” And it actually got me thinking…why haven’t I integrated science into my podcast episodes!


So here we are. On today’s episode, I am taking you back in time through my gym anxiety journey and the things that I did to overcome these periods. I not only share the thought process I had but also the actual research behind why what I did…will actually work for you too!


The following topics are discussed in today’s episode:

  • Definition of anxiety
  • Physical and mental elements of anxiety
  • My first real experience with gym anxiety
  • The pathophysiology/ cause of anxiety within the brain
  • Fight or flight response
  • Exposure therapy
  • My first experience with a personal trainer!
  • Schemas - and what they even are?!
  • My exercise schema
  • Mindfulness and how it’s helped me.
  • Breathwork.
  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy simpified
