Gym Interaction Goes Viral as Bodybuilder Is Told to Lose 20 Pounds

During a popular workout, an unknown individual at the gym commented that a woman should lose 24 pounds.

Exercising at a gym open to the public can be daunting, but numerous athletes document their workouts, primarily concentrating on their own progress rather than competing or facing criticism.

During filming of her workout, TikToker and gym-goer Danielle, who has recently lost 90 pounds, was approached by another gym-goer in a manner she likely did not anticipate.

While she was lifting heavy weights, a man came up to her and commented, “You have a lot of muscle.”He then proceeded to suggest that she lose 24 pounds and aim for a weight of 180 lbs.

Despite being in the middle of a workout, Danielle was surprised as he continued the conversation with her, not yet finished speaking.

Despite insinuating that she had gained weight from drinking, Danielle seemingly tuned him out. However, he clarified that it was just “water weight”she was carrying on her body.

“Wow. I’ve got it all sorted out,”the TikToker exclaimed before ending the video. She had also mentioned to the man that she was training for a bodybuilding competition, although he seemed unaware of her unique approach to preparation.

The viral moment has received overwhelming support from viewers, who have praised Danielle for her handling of the unwarranted criticism. “Your response was incredibly classy,”one person commented, while another added, “You were far too kind.”

The TikToker was also advised by certain viewers to tag gym influencer Joey Swoll, known for producing popular workout videos and calling out individuals for their negative behavior.

During his most recent review in May, Joey criticized a fellow gym member for labeling a woman as “creepy”during her workout, despite her innocence.

Despite being in an empty gym with plenty of machines available, the aggressor in the viral TikTok became infuriated when a woman chose the treadmill beside him.

Despite the audience’s desire to watch Joey report on Danielle’s unpleasant gym encounter, he has yet to reply.
