A survey found that 71% of women feel uncomfortable in traditional gyms. That may explain the growing popularity of women-only gyms. We’re not talking pink walls and lighter weights. These are boxing, rowing, Crossfit-style gyms, which cater exclusively to those who identify as women. And it seems the trend of women-only gyms has soared lately – particularly as a result of the pandemic. Why the shift? Seems during the pandemic, many women realized the gyms they were going to weren’t meeting their needs. Now that people are emerging from pandemic life, they are being more deliberate about how they spend their time and money, which has caused many women to re-think the standard gym experience.
