Hey, guys! 💕 What else would you add to this list?? Have you ever had any strange encounters at the gym? 🤔 Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your weekend. 😘
Summary: 1. Don’t invade personal space of others 2. Don’t use equipment that’s already being used 3. Don’t leave equipment around 4. Don’t unrack one side of the barbell first 5. Don’t feel rushed when using a high demand equipment 6. You don’t need to use clamps on the smith machine
I am on week 4 of your Build II Program and have been in the gym consistently 5-6xs a week for the past two months and I literally can’t believe the changes I’ve seen - in my mind and my body - I wish I could post the photo in here to encourage others to get your program! You were the first person I found on TH-cam who explained everything perfectly and took the fear out of the machines at the gym - thank you for all you do! ♥️
Hey girl, I just wanted to thank you for all your videos. I found you ~9 months ago when I started my fitness journey and you really helped me feel confident and enjoy my time at the gym. I’ve stayed consistent since then and have learned so much from you and other great creators here. I couldn’t have done it with you! And to all the new people getting into fitness: stick with it, I promise it’s worth it. Both mentally and physically
One thing i noticed is the post workout wandering faces. So you see someone who just finished a tough set, they are sweaty and they go into this posture pause when resting.. you would think they are staring at you but really they are not so don't feel like you are being judged! Really when you are wandering you have no control over who your eyes land on
Thank you so much for your videos!! Omg, the part about removing plates when you're done with exercise - I experienced this yesterday. Someone left 45 lb plates on a barbell and I'm on the smaller side, so it was a struggle removing them but thank goodness I got help. Wish more people would clean up after themselves.
That is so annoying when people ask” how many sets do you have left* it doesn’t happen unless I’m done with the machine. I’ve noticed the time that I go to the gym…it’s usually the same group of us there. It’s so consistent that I know when my fellow gym homies are doing lower or upper body😂 it’s a smaller gym so everyone is pretty considerate. Great tips as usual!
LoL Yes! That unspoken but still very present code of honor between you and the gym members you never speak to but are always there with is very real! 😆🙌🏼
absolutely love your videos! your “how to” gym tutorials are fantastic and BY FAR the best I’ve seen on youtube!! your instructions are clear, helpful and easy to follow, you’ve helped me gain confidence using machines i would never have tried before and wanted to say thank you naomi!! 💕genuinely one of the best fitness channels on youtube!!
Can you do a video on the stair machine and how to use it to target youre glutes!!! I just started the gym and you’re videos have helped me so much already
Could you please do a video on how to transition from smith machine to barbells? I’ve been using the smith for months now and can lift pretty heavy with it. But last week when I tried using a barbell with just 60% of my normal weights, I was struggling bec I was kind of swinging from side to side from imbalance. 😪
I had someone literally walk away from the seated cable row, walked across the gym to another machine, so I assumed they were done grabbed the attachment and started using it. The dude comes back 5 minutes later and he had the audacity to literally take the attachment back and said "I wasn't done". I had already done 2 sets at this point and would have been totally okay with him ASKING if he could get his last set in, but he just took it!
It’s all from alphalete :) the logo is on the leggings and she mentions it in the description box. info.alphaleteathletics.com/pages/coming-soon-preview their having a sale in 24 hours too
Please clean the equipment after you use it! It’s not only about sweat, there’s pinkeye, ringworm, MRSA and other health-related reasons to wipe down machines.
@@naomikong Oh my god that’s incredible disrespectful! Sorry it’s hard to keep with all the videos and I just found you not longer than 2 months ago lol so I’m trying to catch up with your amazing videos lol 😂

Your workouts are one of the first ones I did at the gym! I'm 12 pounds down in 6 weeks 💪
You’re doing amazing. Congratulations on the progress so far! 🥲❤️🙌🏼🎉
Thanks Naomi, you have definitely helped me get more confident in the gym with your videos.
Tip no. 5 was really helpful, totally applies to me. I tend to get so nervous when someone is hovering I rush through the workouts.
Awh, so happy to hear that! 🙏🏼 Yes, just take your time and never feel rushed! 🙌🏼

That’s the worst! 😩 I honestly feel like if you’re strong enough to put the weights on the machine, you can also take them off. 😪

Love your videos ❤
Could you please do a video on how to transition from smith machine to barbells? I’ve been using the smith for months now and can lift pretty heavy with it. But last week when I tried using a barbell with just 60% of my normal weights, I was struggling bec I was kind of swinging from side to side from imbalance. 😪
If you haven't already, could you please make a video on how to deadlift on the smith machine?
Thanks for the recommendation! ✨

It will literally always amaze me the nerve of some people. Sorry you had such an awful experience, babe. 😪
Not only is she lovely, and a great coach, she is my favorite 💖💖💖

Thank you for your advice. Beautiful outfit. Where is it from?
It’s all from alphalete :) the logo is on the leggings and she mentions it in the description box. info.alphaleteathletics.com/pages/coming-soon-preview their having a sale in 24 hours too
@@nowey2251 Thank you. I'll look at them
Yes, entire outfit is from Alphalete! (Amplify leggings & I don’t think they have the top still as it’s been a few years since I purchased it!) 💕
@@naomikong That's ok. I'll see if there's another top, hopefully a nicely fitted one
just cme from one of ur videos u have a new subscriber😊
TYSM, babe ☺️
ROFL 🤣 that guy just took your Weights! Good tips! Nice low bar squats!
LoL I know, I was so confused. 😅 TYSM. 🙏🏼
1:26 I laughed when I saw your reaction
I’ve seen sooo many times the claps in the smith machine😂😂😂
Please clean the equipment after you use it! It’s not only about sweat, there’s pinkeye, ringworm, MRSA and other health-related reasons to wipe down machines.
I’m really scared cuz my gym is so small! There’s not much equipment and I’m weak so I’m the lowest weight on everything
Go at low traffic times if you can! & no shame in using lighter weights, no one is really paying attention to each other anyways. 😉🙌🏼
Please tell me you know that person that took away your weight from your machine!! Lmao I would be extremely furious if someone does that to me loool
LoL Guy in the vid is my husband, but guy in real life I had no idea who he was. Was honestly too stunned to even speak. 😅
@@naomikong Oh my god that’s incredible disrespectful! Sorry it’s hard to keep with all the videos and I just found you not longer than 2 months ago lol so I’m trying to catch up with your amazing videos lol 😂
