This is every gym in America. I remember decades ago when you would go to non cardio part of a gym and there would be no women. Now gyms are over run with young women training one thing and one thing only. No upper body, no quads just glutes, glutes, and glutes. Maybe a little hamstring and call it a day. Hip thrusters on a smith machine are their exercise of choice.
This offends me as a bodybuilder because they have NO balance to their build. They just look odd. and ten years later they will have no build to show for all their time in the gym. Just foolish.
I've only given one of them advice because I thought they were going to destroy their back doing bent over rows on a smith machine with the worst form ever and zero back strength. One of the girls appreciated my advice and the other one didn't, but was using my advice the next time she trained.
I miss the days when only the dedicated gym rats were in the gym.
In my gym, women have their own training and exercise room, which is entered via the female lockerroom. (one time though, when i was a PT to a lady, i accidently opened the emergencydoor to the female room from the male room (we are not supposed to enter there) and activated the alarm lol)
I remember one time, there was a middle-eastern (muslim) chick who trained in the same area as me and the blokes, and afterwards she sat down and looked really upset and exhausted
I sat down next to her and asked, what's wrong?
She had a really rough anxiety-attack, things were just too difficult and stressful for her, so i recommended her to train in the all female room instead.
