Struggling with mindset

Hello fit ladies!

Let me start by saying I’ve been Olympic weightlifting for a few years now, before that was doing CrossFit and running (dropped the cardio bit real fast lol) so I consider myself a fit and strong individual.

I’m approaching 14 weeks pregnant and lately, I have been dreading working out. I used to go to the gym every session to get a little bit better, a little bit stronger, always looking to crush the next milestone or hit my next PR. Now, my body’s not doing everything it used to be able to and I find myself disappointed and discouraged while I’m there.

I suppose this post is looking for comraderie and venting more than anything else, because I know I can’t expect my body to do what it used to- I guess I just thought I’d be ready for this when it happened. I’m really frustrated and the place that used to bring me so much joy and empowerment is really letting me down lately.
