Hey everyone,

This is to everyone who trains hard and doesnt care what people think or say.

How do you do it? How do you go to the city park and Sprint your Axx off and not wonder who is saying what about you? I am in fairly good shape and i know i shouldnt care what people think or say about me becuase i am working toward my ultimate goal while they sit on the bench and eat mcdonalds.
Any advice on how to get over my phobia? What to say to people when they start laughing and etc etc?

Lose the self consciousness,stay in your zone and don't let anything distract you.Ignore people,you don't need anyone's opinion but your own.Stay focused and giggle to yourself about how much cooler you are then them.
nothin to it but to do it

Whip it out and blow man gravy in their faces....

Seriously though... fuck people man... as a whole, people suck.

Just do it. And keep doing it. Chances are you will never see those douches again so shrug off any pointing and laughing... or point back and laugh.

If you are really self concious about this... go to a place where there are no people... go at a time where the people are few... and then work your way up to more populated areas.

P.S. Put on a shirt that says "One of my personalities is a serial killer" and run around with a broad sword on your back. People won't laugh at you if they think they are in imminent danger.

dont worry about it, if you're working out hard you'll hardly notice. & if theyre noticing, they're likely not doing much

I always tell people if youre having a convo while youre 'working out' then youre not working out

Just think of people being jealous of you. Think of them saying "man, I should be working out like that guy, fuck I'm fat". Constantly rehearse all the good things people are saying about you. This will not only help with the phobia it will motivate you to work harder.

Be the best, around. And nothing is ever gonna keep you down.

Openly talk shit to them. Or tell them you fu**ed there sister last night as you run by. Maybe you'll get a few good punches in during your workout. If it goes to the ground, put them in a triagle or an armbar. Gauranteed the wont laugh at you next time.

I had a fat kid say something to me when I was running at the park one day. His friends were with him so I turned around and backpedeled and yelled "Keep up with me and tell me what you said! I can't hear your fat ass from over there!" I saw his friends point and laugh while I kept going.

That was me. If I wasn't eating a donut I would have chased you and pounded you/farted on you.

1. Work hard - most haters are just jealous because they can't do it & regularly spend $$$£££ on Magic Ab machines from the shopping channel. If you're working hard you won't even notice.

2. Get a 'I train Muay Thai/boxing/Jiu Jitsu' T shirt. I used to live in a rough area of a city & when I ran I sometimes got stick for it. If you look like you mean business idiots will generally leave you alone. (unless they decide they want to 'test you':grin:

3. Get your head right. For me it's like when I look at a guy with T shirt muscles & a smirk on his face. Hey, he might look good but know what I can do so I don't feel any intimidation.

4. Run with a bull terrier - a great training partner & a better disincentive for the piss takers.

Good luck, don't let the bastards put you off.
