The sweaty nakedness of the&nbsp;changing rooms, the Lycra-clad&nbsp;bodies, the complex exercise&nbsp;machines, the intimidating&nbsp;instructors. Is it any wonder&nbsp;we&rsquo;re so scared of the gym?&nbsp;We all know that feeling when you finally&nbsp;summon up the willpower to go to a&nbsp;class, only to feel all eyes swivel in your&nbsp;direction. &lsquo;They&rsquo;re judging me&rsquo;, &lsquo;They&nbsp;think I&rsquo;m fat&rsquo;, &lsquo;They can tell my gear is&nbsp;from Asda&rsquo;, you decide. Is it really any&nbsp;wonder you don&rsquo;t go back when you&rsquo;ve&nbsp;just beaten yourself round the head&nbsp;repeatedly with your own insecurities?&nbsp;The funny thing is that even the most&nbsp;honed gym bunny will likely have thought&nbsp;exactly the same things about&nbsp;herself at some stage. But what separates the doers from the&nbsp;quitters is either built-in&nbsp;self-confidence or simply&nbsp;deciding to persevere.Lack of confidence A recent study by Sport England&nbsp;found that two million fewer women&nbsp;than men take part in sport and regularly&nbsp;exercise. &lsquo;Most women say they would&nbsp;like to do more,&rsquo; says Jennie Price, chief&nbsp;executive of Sport England. &lsquo;What&rsquo;s&nbsp;stopping them is fear of judgement:&nbsp;whether that&rsquo;s about how they look,guilty about spending time on&nbsp;themselves.&rsquo; It&rsquo;s this very study that&nbsp;lead to the trailblazing This Girl Can&nbsp;campaign. Its brilliantly motivation ads&nbsp;feature real women running, spinning,&nbsp;swimming, you name it, along with&nbsp;inspirational quotes like &lsquo;I jiggle&nbsp;therefore I am,&rsquo; and &lsquo;sweating like&nbsp;a pig, feeling like a fox&rsquo; &ndash; words&nbsp;that have struck such a chord,&nbsp;they even launched a T-shirt in&nbsp;June with M&amp;S, and rumour&nbsp;has it that more gear is in the&nbsp;pipeline, so watch this space.&nbsp;&lsquo;This Girl Can is a celebration&nbsp;of all the women who are&nbsp;exercise: it&rsquo;s an attitude, and a call to action&nbsp;for all women to do the same,&rsquo; says Jennie.&nbsp;Mum-of-three Sam Mollaghan, 44,&nbsp;is featured in the ads. &lsquo;I used to be more&nbsp;active, but life took over and it fell off the&nbsp;list of priorities. That changed after I went&nbsp;for a run on the spur of the moment with&nbsp;my husband. I was worried about not&nbsp;being good enough, but the feeling when&nbsp;I finished was amazing, so I kept it up.&rsquo;Something to be proud of Paediatric nurse Victoria Curwell, 29, who&nbsp;is shown in the ads sweating in a spin class,&nbsp;agrees. &lsquo;Getting red-faced shows your body&nbsp;is working hard and that&rsquo;s something to be&nbsp;proud of, not worry about.&rsquo;Still not feeling inspired enough to cast&nbsp;aside your fears? Read on for our top tips.Buddy upIf you&rsquo;re too scared to go it alone, rope in a&nbsp;friend. It&rsquo;s not just fun, it could make your&nbsp;sessions more effective, too. &lsquo;A gym buddy&nbsp;can be a great way to make training more&nbsp;enjoyable as you can push each other to achieve&nbsp;your fitness goals,&rsquo; says Rob Hale. Can&rsquo;t think&nbsp;of anyone who&rsquo;d be up for it? Join a class. With&nbsp;an instructor guiding your every step, you&rsquo;ll feel&nbsp;more confident that you&rsquo;re working out properly.&nbsp;Plus, the camaraderie will spur you on to keep&nbsp;pushing yourself harder.Set realistic fitness goals&lsquo;Having a clear objective is an&nbsp; important part of feeling confident&nbsp; while you&rsquo;re working out,&rsquo; says Rob&nbsp;Hale, head trainer at Fitness First. &lsquo;By&nbsp;deciding what you want to achieve&nbsp; ahead of time, you will feel more&nbsp; self-assured.&rsquo; If you&rsquo;re unsure about&nbsp; what your objective should be, ask a&nbsp;fitness instructor for advice or book&nbsp; in a session with a personal trainer&nbsp; who can help you set realistic health&nbsp;and fitness goals and develop a&nbsp; structured exercise program to&nbsp; achieve them. Yes, one-to-one tuition&nbsp;may cost a bit more, but you&rsquo;ll reach&nbsp;your goals faster in the long run.Invest in proper kit If rocking up to classes in your old sweats&nbsp;is putting you off, it might be time for an&nbsp;upgrade. &lsquo;You are making an investment&nbsp;in improving yourself, so by spending a&nbsp;bit more on quality kit, it will boost your&nbsp;confidence each time you exercise,&rsquo; says&nbsp;James Staring. You don&rsquo;t have to&nbsp;splurge on the latest in wearable&nbsp;technology, just make sure the fabric is comfortable,it fits you well, and&nbsp;makes you feel good&nbsp;when you look in&nbsp;the mirror.<img src="http://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/5134/120355/55f1d24a7ae5b/1441910964867.jpg" owidth=1825 oheight=2387" style="width:300px" />Take the help that&rsquo;s offered If you join a gym, take up the offer&nbsp;of the induction process. &lsquo;It can&nbsp;be daunting walking into the gym and not knowing what to do,&rsquo; says&nbsp;personal trainer James Staring of fttolast.co.uk. &lsquo;But by taking&nbsp; advantage of the induction you can enter with confidence and purpose.&nbsp; Make sure you ask about which&nbsp; equipment and exercises best suit&nbsp; your goals, and also make sure you&nbsp; understand the answers before you&nbsp; carry on.&#39;&nbsp;They are there to answer&nbsp;your questions, so don&rsquo;t be afraid of&nbsp; asking them (no matter how dumb&nbsp;they may sound in your head!).Don&rsquo;t be frightened of the gym bunnies Remember, everyone started out where&nbsp; you did. &lsquo;People aren&rsquo;t experienced after&nbsp; one session,&rsquo; says James Staring, &lsquo;we all&nbsp; need guidance and the more you do, the&nbsp; more you learn.&rsquo; You might feel like the&nbsp; woman next to you is giving you withering&nbsp; looks, but perhaps she&rsquo;s just worried that&nbsp; you&rsquo;re going to injure yourself by using&nbsp; the equipment incorrectly, so instead of&nbsp; meeting her glances with a death stare,&nbsp; try smiling. &lsquo;Often the people who are&nbsp; experienced are the first ones who will&nbsp;offer you assistance,&rsquo; agrees James. &lsquo;All&nbsp; you have to do is ask and nine out of ten&nbsp;times, you&rsquo;ll be met with a smile and&nbsp;some helpful pointers.&rsquo;
