Went to the conditioning room this morning to try the weights.
I’ve heard that more and more girls are working out with weights. Yeah, right - I was the only girl in the room at the gym and immediately alarms started going off in my head, screaming, “MAN ZONE, GET OUT NOW!”
Everywhere I looked, I saw dudes performing complicated maneuvers with heavy weights!
I was so nervous about going into “dude” territory. So I made up every excuse about why I couldn't do it, and then I decided to 'just do it' and not let such a dumb fear get in my way. So I dragged myself in there and yeah...... I made a complete fool of myself because I'm not the most graceful girl...especially when nervous!
I couldn’t remember what all of the equipment was for or how it worked, so if certain equipment confuses you or you need help with your form or a spotter, ask someone, preferably a trainer on the floor to help - that's what they're there for! I've even had another member offer to help me - I'm just over five feet tall and can’t reach everything. Hahaha...
