You can say that again.

Have said this countless times & I`ll stick by it.

I don`t like women in the gym when I train, never have never will. Too much of a distraction because, by choice or not, they draw attention to themselves & that can get dangerous. And they are the worst I`ve ever met for jumping on a machine your using as soon as you get off after a set, no manners, no asking if you`ve finished they just help their bloody selves [-X

If I owned a gym they wouldn`t be allowed in =; and if they were it wouldn`t be on the same days as the blokes.

While I understand your point, I only see that in certain type of gyms, ones I really do not train in. In the gyms I do train in, yes they do draw attention, but from what I see they also increase the general intensity of the gym and that is much needed in this age.

btw, what the hell were you searching for to get to that video? :finga:

Theres only been the one gym that the women used to annoy me but it was a 'fitness' type place and tbh most people in there used to be quite annoying. Everyone was ingnorant of gym etiquette in that place. The more hardcore gyms Ive trained in the women have been good to train with.
It was a woman BBer who showed me the ropes when I first started training, she was cool.

Ana trained in portugal and the rest of the female clients all trained hard...........they obviously learned gym etiquette

here we have a few women, they all train hard, and pound for pound lift as much as or more than some of the men, or want to learn and lift heavy

in the gym i trained at the women stayed on the cardio side and guys got on with it on the free weights side

I`ll admit to training with a woman & learning how to cable row correctly from said woman but I still find them too distracting either via males spending too much time copping an eye full or letting their ego`s get the better of them to impress the female of the species.

It was proved that boys studied harder & got far better grades when they were in single sexed classrooms.
