Really don't worry about if you do have to do the roll of shame if you decide you are too nervous/the squat rack doesn't work out - I was so embarrased the first time I had to do it but then I look around and realised 'hey, no-one cares' and I'd been worrying about the possibility for no reason Maybe give it a try even if…
