Misconception about joining the gym

I always hear misconceptions people have about joining a gym. Everyone has their own priority but a lot of you, especially girls hold back themselves just thinking that going to the gym might make them bulky. This is not at all true unless you are consuming lots of supplements and steroids along with gymming.
Not everyone joins the gym with the primary motive of bodybuilding. You spot a hell number of people who are there just to get a good physique and for staying fit. You should join the gym even if you aren’t on a weight loss spree.

Actually, women can get bulky (very muscular) from working out. Generally it takes a good decade of dedication and lucking out in genetics. But yeah, normal working out: a mix of cardio and weights, isn't going to make anyone look like a body builder.1
