There are lots of great fitness centers and gyms operating these days, and many of them try to cater to just about everyone who might be looking for a place to get in shape and participate in an effective workout. While a general fitness center might be good for most people, some women enjoy specialization and prefer to workout at women's gyms. Gyms that focus on serving only women usually offer some unique benefits over a general facility that caters to both sexes. So let's take a look at those advantages:
Advantage #1: Women's gyms allow females to exercise without the fear of being ogled or approached by men during their workout. Let's face it, there is no doubt a lot of people who believe that today's gyms function as modern-day singles bars, when in fact most people -- especially women -- go to their fitness center of choice in order to help themselves get in shape. They aren't there looking for a date, so women's gyms provide female patrons the opportunity to workout and to feel comfortable at the same time. When a woman is exercising, particularly if she's not looking her best because of the effort she's putting in, she probably doesn't want to worry about being hit on by a stranger.

Advantage #2: Practically all women's gyms offer programs that are tailored specifically to women. That means that a woman who enrolls in a females-only fitness center should expect to find that there are classes and programs designed for the unique specifics of a female's body. We all know that men and women are different in lots of ways, and those differences include our bodies and how they work and develop. Women's gyms give females the opportunity to work on their bodies under the guidance of instructors and trainers who are focused on the special needs of a woman. That's a major benefit to the body-conscious lady.

Advantage #3: It seems that generally speaking, women's gyms are smaller and more intimate. Co-ed fitness centers (like those well-known major mega gyms) can be huge and, at times, overwhelming. A smaller and less intimidating gym can make it easier for someone to focus on their conditioning without feeling lost. Women's gyms quite often strive to provide a sense of intimacy and pride themselves of being compact and effective, with a minimum of hype and a premium on providing a quality workout experience without making their patrons feel overwhelmed.

If you're a woman and you're looking specifically for a fitness center that caters to women only, you're probably in luck. There are a number of terrific women's gyms operating with a focus on female fitness these days, and practically every community of any size has several top-notch facilities for women to choose from. In the end, the advantages of a center that is designed for females make them a comfortable and safe environment for women looking for an effective workout.
 
This post is very sexist in nature.

I am yet to see a ladies only gym that is fully equipped, the vast majority of ladies only gyms are very patronising and the trainers are often inadequately trained for anything other than taking a client through a cookie cutter machine only session.

If men are ogling then it is the sexist men who should change gyms, not female clients, who should report such poor male behaviour.

Ladies don't need special programs, muscle is muscle and fat loss is still fat loss regardless of gender

Smaller and more intimate = small and under equipped while charging premium prices.
