    hopefully we can persuade you to get your game face on, get in there and shift some iron!

    i prefer stealth perving to be honest. nothing more off putting than the person your perving at knowing your perving at them.
    Get in the free weights area. It may be intimidating but you will make alot more progress there than on machines and cardio equipment. stick some headphones on and try and ignore what everyone else is doing

    Just get in there and lift, it doesn't take long to feel confident in the free weights area, you have just as much right to train as the guys.

    agree with the others, dont worry about others in the free weight area. Remember i was a bit unsure when i started so went when it was quiet to get used to it then cracked on from there

    The guys in the gym will be just, if not more, scared, half of the ones in mine looked terrified the minute a girl sets foot in 'their second home', makes me laugh heartily... 'please don't make eye contact with me!'.
