What Members Say

Girl Gains helped me reach my fitness goals in college!

I primarily worked out with my boyfriend and his friends who just didn't really understand the female weightlifting experience. I was so desperate for girl gym friends who had similar goals to me and actually understood how important overall wellness, good meals, and knowing your body were part of fitness. Girl Gains helped me find those people and grow confident in myself in and outside of the gym??

- Nora, University of Wisconsin Madison Girl Gains

I found my people!

In the past I have had trouble finding other girls who enjoy weightlifting, but Girl Gains has introduced me to so many women who have similar interests and mindsets!

- Nori, San Diego State University Girl Gains

I love that Girl Gains empowers women to reach their goals.

As a previous gymnast who came to school not really knowing how to navigate the actual gym, Girl Gains gave me a chance to learn the ropes within a comfortable community. I love that it empowers women to reach their goals, and it's an environment that I feel safe in when I decide to join events or meet someone at the gym.

- Jaenalyn, University of Southern California Girl Gains

I was afraid of the gym before Girl Gains.

I was afraid to go to gym by myself before and I wanted to know people in the field that can lead/introduce me to gym. I also wanted to know more strong women and I am happy that I made new friends after joining Girl Gains.

- Renee, University of Illinois Girl Gains

My school doesn't have a chapter!

If you don't see a chapter on your campus, it means there isn't one established yet. Apply to start one here!

Am I eligible to join?

We welcome women, non-binary folk, and all gender identities from every fitness background. Each chapter may vary in regard to specific eligibility to comply with University guidelines.

No fitness level is required. We offer something for everyone, regardless of your experience.

I'm not in school anymore, but still want to join.

We have alumni programs, which are our graduate community meet ups. Please still fill out the inquiry form in Step One above, and include in the comments the city you are residing in.

I have another question.

Email us! We're here for you.
