Someone told me today that I’m too intense.

I don’t know if this is the right sub, but I’ve been on a weight loss journey that allowed me to hit my goal in September. Since then I’ve maintained and added a weight training regimen 5 days a week and core 7 days a week. While training with a new trainer, he made the comment that I’m too intense and need to be more fluid. I had a physical therapist tell me something similar a few weeks ago. My husband just makes comments like ‘stop’..

It wasn’t until today that I actually asked someone (the trainer) ‘what does that mean?’ He replied that I’m not fluid in my motions, I’m clenching my face, I look on edge.

I’m looking for advice on how do i become less intense? Also this might be a warning for those who see or reach progress - reaching your goals and the desire to never go back can not only leave your facial expressions weird and your body poised for action, but may be creating stress internally driven by fear.

This sub has helped me more in the past 8 months than anyone can imagine. Keep it up - although be aware that things might not play out exactly like you thought when you’ve reached those goals!

TLDR; I’m turning into an intense, non fluid, weird expressioned, tense lunatic because I’m never going back but I’m not trying to kill myself from the stress of it all either.
