I'm uncomfortable excercising in public?!


Question: I'm uncomfortable excercising in public!?
I excercise at my home every other day or daily, depending on my mood!. However, I'm extremely uncomfortable excercising outside of my home, such as running outside or going to a gym!. I also get embarassed when people KNOW I'm excercising, like my dad, sister or boyfriend!.
My boyfriend has wanted to go running with me or swimming and what not and I would get super nervous and anxious just thinking about doing that stuff with him!. I always made up some excuse!.
I'm not where near fat, but I'm still, for some reason, very uncomfortable!.
Why is this!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

i used to be like that too, just i never did work out around my bf!.!.!.
it could be that you dont want to feel weak or you dont want to be made fun of because of how or what you are doin while you work out!.!.!.though you shouldnt really care, especially around your bf and family, those should be your last worries!.!.!.!. its nice how your bf want to work out with you by running, you should go with him, you might actually feel comfortable being with someone and not alone all the time!.!.!.
i know i would have this challenging feelin if i worked out with my man!.!.!.lol!.!.!.but i wouldnt feel uncomfortable!.!.!.=)
dont think about it too much, and like you said!.!.!. its not like you are really over weight!.!.!.!.but even if you were!.!.!. that shouldnt matter either, at least you are showin ppl that you are willing to do something about it!.!.!.
go for a jog or run outside, the fresh air will do you good and some company wont either =)!.!.!.!. and workin out with someone could help you give you tips on how you should do something better or easier!.!.!.

I used to be like this until I realised people don't give Sh*t what you do so you shouldnt give a Sh*it either in other words dont be nervous!.
If its infront of your boyfreind, sister and brother ant that theres no reason to be embarresed!. Go running with your boyfreind usually it takes the nervousness away when your with somone else!.
Maybe try telling your brother and ssiter your going to the gym !? Maybe they can come with you!? So there isnt any reason to be embarrsesd!. Just remember people don't mind exercising infront of you so why should they care if you do it!. So maybe for the first few minutes they might stare at you but after that your just there any they don't care!. Trust me on this one!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was like this about swimming in public!. I've got a really good body but was very uncomfortable being seen in a swimming suit until I ended up on my military swimming team!. Can't say no in the military and this being in France we were issued with very small bikini type suits!. I knew I had to do it so I did and the more I did the more comfortable I became!.

Just start and it will be OK!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

hey,
im a guy, and im fourteen, and i used to feel that way until i "borrowed" my dads weights from our attic and got buffed up and got miself a sixpack!.
i know use every possible excuse to work out in public that i can, just to show off, i admit it!.
i really dont know about u being unconfortable though!.!.!.!.
maybe u just want people to think ur naturally fit!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds normal, and as predictable as this sounds, the only way you can get over this is by forcing yourself to go out and excersise and then realise yourself that there isn't anything to worry about!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
