The given/provided line graph compares the number of male and female gym memberships between 1980 and 2010, a period of 30 years.
Overall, it is readily apparent that women’s memberships have increased throughout the period, whereas men’s memberships exhibited significant fluctuations and an overall decline by the end of the timeframe.
Turning back to details, in 1980, the number of male gym members stood at around 2,000. This figure rose sharply, reaching a peak of about 4,000 in 1985. However, this growth was not sustained, and membership numbers for men dropped to around 1,600 in 1995. After this period of decline, there was a significant increase, with the numbers peaking at approximately 5,000 in 2005, followed by another sharp decline to 1,000 by 2010.
Moving to further details, in contrast, women’s gym membership started at a lower point of around 1,000 in 1980 and increased steadily to about 2,000 by 1995. There was a slight decrease thereafter, but membership remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 1,500 and 2,000 from 2000 to 2010.
