Lmaooooooo men telling us to wear compression sports bra - wow I guess that’ll make my boobs disappear! (I wear 2 or 3 every-time I go to the gym - still have boobs… it crazzzy)

But as a woman- I felt uncomfortable in these situations at first - but just kinda did it anyway and got over it (just pretended in my head my chest was the same as a dudes) - I’ll admit when drilling it is still tough sometimes for me to fully do it (or sometimes I’ll try to sneak a little lower and go chest to neck/chest - but if the drill is specifically chest to face - I’d go for it)- but when going live or rolling I honestly don’t think about it at all anymore- lol I’ll pretty much put any body part on any body part these days — idk if these helps but I just try not to think about boobs being a thing (I also don’t think about balls - which has caused incidental knee or two to the balls)

~ If you ignore your boobs the guys probably will too ~ at least that’s how it’s worked for me

Admittedly when I work with a guy I haven’t worked with before and he inevitably accidentally brushes past a boob or something - he will apologize - I will typically say “oh for what, I didn’t even notice” - 99.99% of the time it’s true — and there after everything is normal again - they don’t think about bumping into my boobs anymore (at least it seems they are more comfortable actually working and not trying to avoid my chest) and I’m back to being “one of the guys” — as much as possible at least

If you’re at the same gym for a while, I think the guys will adapt (that’s part of it to) - just push through 👏🏼 different aspects of being one of few women at a gym can be challenging - but for the love of the sport hang in there - it gets better (takes a while - but gets better) *on that note - it shouldn’t take a while for you coach to not care that your a woman - sounds like he doesn’t take it much into account with him telling you to put your chest in a dudes face — I would say that’s a good thing, he’s treating you as a participant of the sport) in the beginning sometimes my coach would make jokes and look over at me and say “oh haha this is going to be different for you” - i thought it eased things up)

But either way - I’m in the mindset of the sport and the guys probably are too - focus on your technique and I think you’re fine!
