Yes, I used to feel uncomfortable too - even when I was just doing cardio!
I hired a personal trainer, and that made me feel better because I knew I wouldn't end up doing something weird, backwards, or injuring myself. So, when it was time to go it alone, I knew my way around and felt more comfortable. Also, I kept on reading and learning, and that helped too.
Most people in the gym are too busy thinking about themselves to worry about other people. This is true about most situations in life. That is EXCEPT if you happen to run into ME!! I notice everything (gotta do something for entertainment during cardio)
But don't worry, I'll never laugh or point my finger. I'm sure plenty of people watch me and think "weird chick" for something I might be doing, but I don't give a flip. I paid my money to be there just like everyone else.
