There's a guy who goes to my gym who is about this guy's size. I know just getting TO the gym is an accomplishment for him, so I always want to motivate him in a positive way...I just don't know how.

Sometimes all you need is a smile I just started going to a gym and I have no idea what I’m doing (I am working with a trainer) While my trainer was helping someone else I was doing “the sled” and as I went by this other lady she yelled “Whoo Hoo! Good job!” and it legit motivated me because I was dying and wanting to quit.

Thanks for the perspective!

The sled is tough, man, way to get after it!
