A Shocking Number of Women Avoid the Gym for Fear of Being Judged
It's not uncommon for a little anxiety to creep into your gym time. Am I doing this right? Are people staring at my sweat stains? If you've ever felt intimidated walking into a weight room, you're certainly not alone. According to a new survey, gymtimidation does more than just cause a little anxiety—it's keeping a shocking number of women at home.
Sixty-five percent of women actually avoid the gym over a fear of being judged, according to a survey of 1,000 people across the U.S. by Fitrated, a platform for gym equipment reviews. By comparison, only 36 percent of men felt that way.
The list of gym fears goes on. Fifty-five percent of women feel they're being judged for "not looking fit enough," 49 percent fret about their clothing choice, and 25 percent fear being stereotyped. (See: How to Pump Up Your Body Confidence at the Gym)
"Fear of judgment comes from exactly that: fear," says Ashley Borden, a certified strength and conditioning specialist. "I used to suffer from a debilitating gym-going 'distorted ego.' I had this idea that everyone was going to stop what they were doing and judge me every moment. Reality check? After 35,000 hours working in a gym setting, I can tell you this: the only one who really cares is you," she says. "Everyone else is so focused on themselves they couldn't care less or they're thinking the exact same thing themselves."
Since not even top trainers are immune to a little gym anxiety, they've got the expert strategies to help you score some major confidence gains. Here's how to increase your confidence at the gym and crush a fear of being judged.
