Calum Scott Shows Off His Body Transformation While in Lockdown

“Pre/During/Post Lockdown progress pictures 💪🏼 Coincidentally, today is #NationalFitnessDay and is also 6 months to the day since the first lockdown in the UK began so it felt appropriate to post about how fitness has helped me..I’ll be honest, at the start of lockdown I struggled to stay motivated, like most of us did. That first week I literally sat playing Call Of Duty, eating pizza and drinking wine..don’t get me wrong, amazing for a couple of days but the novelty wore off quick!” he wrote.

“As lockdown continued and as I was isolating alone, my mental health started to deteriorate. I was demotivating myself, making myself feel guilty, useless, worthless. I was aware that I was doing this to myself, listening to the doubt whispering bulls–t in my ear, so I got up, got my trainers on and ran. The feel-good was instant but I knew for consistent mental health improvement, I would need to be consistent in physical health too. I’m not at my target, I have more work to do, but I’m happy with my progress, especially during a time when all I wanted to do was watch Netflix and eat biscuits.”

“The take away from this is NOT ‘look at how well I’ve done’ – it’s to remind you that we all feel sh*t sometimes. We all want to sit down and do nothing sometimes, we all get demotivated BUT if you make a start with exercise, work hard within your limitations, stay committed to achievable goals and aim for more, you can achieve and MUCH more than you imagined.
