Women-only gyms may not be something new, but they’re trending, especially on TikTok. There’s even a #WomensOnlyGym which has over 18 million views. Have you been thinking of trying one? If you’re still not sure if women-only gyms are right for you, here are five reasons to go ahead and try them out.
Less Intimidating
Gyms can be really intimidating, especially if you’re new to working out. And don’t even get us started on the weight lifting area—it’s full of beefed-up men. At women-only gyms, you don’t have to worry about this and it’s less intimidating since there are only females there.
Women-Focused Gym Ammenieties
These gyms tend to have more equipment and classes geared toward women and with the female body in mind.
More Privacy and Intimacy
Believe it or not, women-only gyms are usually quieter and smaller than other gyms. They also offer personal training with women or they post the hours where men are working.
Networking
Gyms are not only a great place to get a workout, but they’re also amazing for making friends and networking. At women-only gyms, you can meet people to hang out with outside of exercising.
Holistic Approach
Women-only gyms often take a holistic approach to fitness. They view being fit as being about working out, nutrition, and mental health.
