Hi, I'm in need of advice. I'm 41, I have a job offer which hangs on a bleep test tomorrow night at police HQ. I've worked so hard academically through the job process at every stage and in my nights I'm redoing my GCSE maths. I've not exercised for ten years I've been a busy mum of 3 so me time wasn't a thing. I started the C25K 4 weeks ago and I've loathed it, it hurts my hips my knees and mentally I've just not enjoyed the hills so someone suggested I need the gym instead. Here over the past 2 weeks I've ran on the tread fast slow fast slow, the bikes, leg weights and the cross trainer and I'm breaking out a sweat. My bleep test results vary, the last 2 I drop out at level 3/4 I just don't know how to push through it. I have improved my first ever one was level 2.3..how embarrassing because some people say it's easy to achieve. I'm not overweight my BMI is in a good range I'm just no good at sports or exercise I never have been. I once did it right to level 5.4 which is a pass but I was way off the bleeps but I just kept running. Anyway I'm googling if this is me, " will I always be unfit" I do get a second chance 6 weeks apart so I can smash some gym training but my job anchors on this test and I'm at a mental physical barrier. I can picture what I want is to pass and be happy but then I think of everyone around me passing and me being devastated my fear of being a failure is taking over my daily thoughts 😭 ca I improve ? If I'm just not physically fit enough now would I be able to breeze it next chance? Thanks
