[quote=Anonymous]I go to a Gold’s in Arlington. Occasionally I am the only woman in the lifting area, but usually there are a few other women and some of them actually lift pretty heavy too. I don’t find the environment intimidating but I have also been lifting for years and like PP I am also from Eastern Europe with a strong RBF game. Still, I find the men generally pretty friendly and cooperative when I want to share equipment or need a spot. It is true they are mostly focused on themselves, but I do not agree they will completely ignore you. You will inevitably get checked out and you need to be able to deal with that. Hire a trainer to get yourself familiar with the equipment if you need to gain some confidence before venturing into the lifting area on your own. [/quote]
