Listen, we know all too well how challenging those last few reps can be! So when your trainer turns their head or steps away for a breather, tell us, are you still staying on track? Well if you don’t, you’re not alone! Check out this hilarious skit making rounds on Instagram and peep some comments from #SweatSisters down below!

No matter what, though, no cheating is allowed at the upcoming PRETTY GIRLS SWEAT Fest!

There’s no shame, ladies! But, cheating on your workouts can prove detrimental for several reasons, so we wouldn’t recommend it. Before you skip a few reps, consider the following:

  1. Hindered Progression: Your trainer has tailored your workout regimen to help you reach your unique and specific workout goals. If you’re skipping exercises or even just doing a few too little reps, then you run the risk of hindering your fitness progression and missing out on the results that you want.
  2. Waste of Money: You’re paying your trainer for a reason. If you’ve hired a personal trainer, then you should want to get your money’s worth during your workouts. If you’re cheating during these workouts, then you’re wasting money instead.
  3. Lack of Discipline: One of the key benefits of a workout regimen is the mental and physical discipline that it creates. Maintaining a consistent workout regimen allows you to develop stronger discipline and follow-through, teaching you how to practice patience and persistence in the pursuit of a goal. However, when you cheat on your workouts and fail to give them your all, then you miss out on this opportunity for personal growth and character development.
