Female fitness influencers may be all over social media nowadays, but it wasn't always the norm.
According to Front Door Fitness, women weren't encouraged to work out at gyms until the 1940s.
Samantha Harris, a trainer at Life Time Bridgewater, says "as a woman coming into a fitness club... and seeing another female, especially a female training, it can be really inspiring."
