Women scared of weights

At my place women have there own designated gym area, the only ones who venture into our are are the competitive builders.

The point of this article is to address why are so many women scared of lifting weights? Why are they content with just running miles and miles.

Underneath the initial fat is muscle that needs toning. So often iwalk through reception, and see women 12 months after joing, stick thin through cardio, but looking "meh" due to neglecting a decent weightlifting regime!

The stigma around "doing weights" has scared so many women off! If you watch WWE you see women who lift weights, the look "stunning". They have balanced every aspect of female lifting, and look fit whilst feminine.

Gyms need to do more to make women aware of the benefits of lifting weights without the threat of looking like an amazon.

Does any body think the same?
