A woman was banned from her gym after she complained about a male customer interfering with her video.
Going to the gym can be an anxiety-provoking experience for some clients. From worrying about doing it the wrong way to obsessing about how you look when you sweat, just getting to the gym in the first place is a huge accomplishment for those with anxiety.
However, modern technology has made the gym a more intimidating experience for many customers – especially smartphone cameras. We covered a series of gym incidents in which influencers were criticized for filming unsuspecting people during their workouts.

For example, a woman was criticized for mocking an elderly patron for kicking a punching bag, while the man himself had no idea he was being posted all over the internet.
Now, another influencer is under fire for complaining after a man got in her way while she was working out.
Influencer’s gym membership revoked after video goes viral
The backlash started after an influencer named ‘mrocha_85’ uploaded footage of her workout on Instagram. In the video, she is doing lunges with dumbbells on a strip of grass.
On the right side of the planetarium, a man can be seen removing plates from a bench press. At one point in the video, it appears he looks toward the influencer, but it’s unclear whether he’s looking directly at her specifically.
It seems like she wasn’t happy with the guy in her scene, she said in the caption on the video: “Why people like this? Who invited him to appear in my video? Lord, please give me patience.”
The video quickly spread online, making viewers angry because she appeared upset with the man for just a seemingly small violation. The video was spread to the Internet’s resident good-natured gym bro, Joey Swoll, who called her out in another viral clip.
“Just because you start filming doesn’t mean everyone else has to stop working out just because of you,” he said. “You don’t own the gym.”
That’s not all; Swoll even claimed that he called the gym and spoke to the General Manager, who assured him that the influencer’s membership had been revoked due to the incident.
The manager also said they approached the man in the video and “made sure he felt comfortable at the gym as a member.
Commenters were quick to applaud Swoll for reaching out to the gym and calling out bad behavior from gym goers — something the “Positive Gym CEO” is known for.
