I think that one thing that has kept me going with CAS is social element that comes with it.

I remember being terrified and completely clueless the first time I went to the gym for CAS. I had a general idea of which muscle groups I wanted to exercise, but I didn’t know how to operate any of the equipment–save a few dumbbells. Luckily, one of my good friends and also a bona-fide gym veteran was there to help me out. He showed me the ropes for a lot of the equipment there, and introduced me to some useful exercises that activated specific important muscles.

Generally speaking, I feel like I have had a lot of social interaction within my CAS clubs, and that has really helped me to stay motivated and keep trying to improve. I hope that I can continue going strong with CAS in the future, and also pass on that motivation to the others around me!
