No Boys Allowed.....unless we know you
One of the things I actually like about my gym is they have a " women only " side. Its clearly separated by walls and ample sign-age. Its not uncommon for a male trainer to momentarily be on our side but thats usually the extent of it. They recently hired a new Personal Training company to run things and those boys do not know the rules. The old trainers were old , gross, and honestly a horrible advertisement. The new trainers, well lets just say they know what they are doing . If you are on that side of the gym there is a reason , you don't want to be gawked at while your dripping sweat , trying to figure out a machine , or just doing something completely stupid. Tonight some of the new guys literally sat up on a ledge and watched us all , all that was missing was popcorn. They just sat and stared. Of course Kristyn and I are such professionals and rule followers ( I am sure some of you are shocked by that statement ) that we kept moving out of their sight to finish our workout. I do realize that for a large portion of the population they could care less but for some of us , getting to the gym is a miracle in itself , and learning how to use some of that equipment isn't an easy task . So , to have some cocky , spray tanned gym rat staring at you isn't exactly our idea of nice. Last year one afternoon when there were a whole 5 people in the entire gym one of my good friend Emily's husband Bob came over to the girls side to train us .... he literally was just walking around showing us what to do and after about 3 minutes someone complained , but they can just pile in a watch us like its a freak show. Ha ha I am sure it is a freak show at times but you get my point !
Regardless Kristyn and I powered through , we weren't dramatic about it at all :) Thankful to have a best friend and a MOH to struggle through workouts with.
