"My-Cro" Wins: My's PPS Story

Do you get intimated by the people achieving huge results in the gym?

20-50kg weight-loss journies...

Deadlifting 2-3 x their bodyweight...

They are incredible achievements but can lead to others feeling like they aren't good enough to join a gym or overshadowing others who think their achievements are perceived as small but are significant to them.

My Dang joins us on the PPS Podcast to share her PPS Story and remind us to celebrate our 'Micro Wins' in the gym. Not everyone is out to achieve these massive numbers we see on social media. Some are just looking to feel comfortable in their skin or feel like they are finally consistent and belong in a gym for the first time in their lives.

A lesson that has pushed her along on her PPS journey, 3 years and 385 workouts later, after thinking she would never again join a gym after an off-putting initial experience with another trainer at a commercial gym.

Dan's People of PPS Story

Dan describes himself as the opposite of a gym person growing up. And a 'Skinny Fat' guy who would be the last to get picked for sports teams at school.

Fast forward to today, and Dan can now see himself as an athlete on the Powerlifting platform where he can Squat & Deadlift 3 x his body weight.

Although, it was a slow start, and he could barely bench-press a 3kg dumbbell on his first day in the gym. He now bench-presses close to 100kg and has the confidence to go to the beach and take his top off finally.

We hear Dan's story and his thoughts as he is less than 12-Weeks out from his biggest Powerlifting Competition to date.

Another of many steps out of his comfort zone that have shaped who he now is today.
