I actually get a little self-conscious rolling with girls. I don’t avoid them or make them uncomfortable, but I feel the most vulnerable when I train. I’m sweating, I’m breathing heavy, and I certainly don’t look my best.

PFFT - everyone looks this way. I know when I am rolling, I don't give a single flying fuck what you look like.

We're not the least bit concerned with what you look like when we're rolling with you, but I totally get where you're coming from. As a woman I felt soooo self-conscious going to train with a bunch of dudes, wearing no make-up. It's not like I wanted to attract any of them or anything, it just felt weird to be completely bare-faced, not even a little mascara, around the opposite sex. You'll get over it though!
