Gym fitness women

Women who go to the gym to exercise are essentially no different from ordinary people who actively choose to exercise. They are just trying to achieve a more independent life through controllable physical training. They should never be labeled as "posing for photos", "strengthening to get stronger" or "for weight loss".

I have been going to Shangjian for almost three years, and I have seen between 100 and 80 female members. They are not the templates summarized on the Internet at all. The girl I was with just last week is an Internet back-end developer. She had shoulder and neck pain last year that even typing was difficult. She was urged to exercise by the doctor. At first, her arms shook when holding a 2kg dumbbell. Now she can deadlift 40kg steadily, and a large area of ​​her trapezius muscle has been lost. Recently, she wears a strapless sling to work every day. She said that she no longer has to wear a wide sweater to cover her shoulders. The last time I saw her squatting at the door of the locker room after training, eating braised chicken legs, while calculating whether she had enough protein today, she didn't have the burden of giving up oil and sugar as a so-called "fitness girl".

The Internet is always quarreling over whether girls should practice strength training. Some people say that if girls practice strength, they will become "King Kong Barbies" and unfeminine. Some people say that they must gain weight to gain muscle and increase their basal metabolism. Among the girls I have met, there are living examples of both sides. There is a girl who works in design who only attends two Pilates sessions and one Yin Yoga session every week, and never touches dumbbells or barbells. After a year, her rounded shoulders and hunchback have completely healed, but her whole body cannot stretch. She said that she just wants a comfortable posture and cannot compete with heavy weights. After practicing, stretching her whole body is better than anything else. There is also a little girl in 1998 who is addicted to masturbation. Her arm circumference is almost 30. When she goes out wearing tight clothes, people always stare at her arm lines. She is very proud of her. She said that the last time she met a drunk man blocking the way after get off work in the middle of the night, she squeezed her fist and the man walked away. "This sense of security is better than any boyfriend."

There is also a very common prejudice that girls only go to the gym to lose weight. I know a 42-year-old sister whose children are in junior high school. Her body fat rate has always been stable at around 23. She has never deliberately controlled her diet. She comes here three times a week and only exercises her core and lower back. The lumbar disc herniation she received during her physical examination last year has changed from herniation to bulging. She said that she came to the gym with no intention of losing weight. She just wanted to wait until she retires to climb Mount Huangshan with her husband, so that she won’t have to be carried by someone when she takes two steps. There is also a young girl who has just graduated. She comes to boxing target for half an hour every day after get off work. She said that she was angry with her boss during the day. She punches a sandbag for half an hour and all her grievances are gone. It is much healthier than complaining to friends and drinking too much. Lose weight? She had never considered that she would have to go downstairs to buy a cup of full-sugar milk tea to reward herself after practice.

Occasionally, I hear people saying that when girls go to the gym, they either pose for photos or try to catch a guy. I want to laugh every time I hear that. A girl who really puts her mind to practice, she is so out of breath during the rest between sets that she can't speak clearly. All her thoughts are like "Should I add 2.5kg to the next set?" "Did your waist collapse during the deadlift just now?" How can she have time to take a look at how the man next to her is doing? Last time, a girl was practicing deadlifts and a man next to her came over and said, "I'll teach you if your movements are wrong." She didn't even raise her head. She said, "Thank you, I have a personal trainer." She turned around and added 5kg of tablets to herself. It was so cool. Of course, there are people who change their clothes and take photos for half an hour before leaving, but people spend money to buy memberships and do whatever they want, and they don’t occupy equipment and influence others, so what’s there to criticize?

Hazardous, to put it bluntly, the gym is just a sports venue that you can enter by paying money. It is no different from the small square downstairs where the aunties perform square dancing, or the wild mountains where everyone goes hiking on weekends. Some of the women who come here come here to look good, some to be healthy, and some just to sweat and feel refreshed. There is never any unified standard, and they are not guilty of being labeled by outsiders with all kinds of weird labels. You can practice whatever you like. After practice, take a hot bath, take a stroll home with the evening breeze, and buy an iced watermelon on the way. You are the one who enjoys it, and others can say whatever they like.
