How common is it to have dating/tensions going on in the gym?
I used to train in jiu jitsu and ended up leaving after realizing my classmates/instructors were having some sort of “extra relations” or flirting which made classes and training very awkward for me. I don’t want to hear about love triangles or who has nice abs or any distractions like that. I just want to train hard.
So for my experience, coed training seems like a huge distraction. I’m honestly doubting if coed training is even a good idea because the atmosphere at my gym completely changed when the women were present vs not.
Was my experience a one off or is it common? Are there any male-only gyms in los angeles? Do any women want to train separately too?
