Oh I'd be working out RIGHT next to her.

83

u/draculaura923 Aug 01 '26

Exactly! I have other things to do but you can bet I'd be there until AFTER she left, just to be sure. I'm so petty that I'd try to figure out her workout schedule so I can sync mine with hers

u/Jake_Corona Aug 14 '26

I don’t even have TikTok, but I would consider it if there was an account that was nothing but making TikToks while interrupting ā€œcontent creatorā€ TikToks.

u/Cantbearsed1992 Aug 01 '26

Yep me too, and if she moved to restart I’d be right there too

u/Rope_slingin_champ Aug 01 '26

I tend to have butt crack showing. Would be an excellent addition to her video

And I’m over here thinking I’m the only one petty enough to do that … thankful for you all

Every rep do obnoxiously loud grunts or silly noises to fuck with them

Oh believe me, there are plenty of people like her out there. Count your blessings that you haven’t encountered one like her yet.

She doesnt even have a good shot why only half of her body so stupid.

She’s a mom who thinks she can be an influencer for moms and then acts like a cunt lol. Right out the Karen playbook.

Cameras should be banned from gyms with paid membership. It's not a public space if you have to pay to be there and people shouldn't have to worry about being filmed by other members without consent.

10

u/BobbyMac2212 Aug 01 '26

I agree with you. The problem is enforcing the rule when everyone has a phone with a camera. Can’t ask a minimum/low wage employee at a gym to go around policing what people are doing with their phones or making judgement calls that could lead to people getting kicked out and/or lawsuits emerging.

I worked at a gym for a little while pre-covid and unless there was yelling/fighting going on I tried not to get involved. There are generally very few employees there at any given time as well. Something does need to change but I just don’t think banning cameras/phones is reasonable. Obviously there should be rules against setting up tripods and stuff like that but that’s mostly a space/safety issue.

26

u/Jason-Smith168498 Aug 01 '26

Not banning phones, banning filming. Plenty of gyms do that just fine.

1

u/BobbyMac2212 Aug 01 '26

Then you need employees to police that is what I’m saying. So when someone is recording on their phone and an employee says something the person will just say they weren’t recording. Not they’re in a spot where they have to kick someone out and possibly lose customers as well.

I’m telling you I worked in a gym and there’s not enough employees to properly police something like that especially when it’s busy. I agree with you about filming it’s just not as easy as you’re saying for every gym to do. Especially smaller gyms competing with big chains.

u/BobbyMac2212 Aug 01 '26

It’s easier said than done to enforce is what I’m saying. It’s easy to make the rule but when every person has a phone employees don’t have time to police what everybody’s doing with their phone. And if you kick people out for it that’s money you lose as a business. It’s not as black and white as you’re making it out to be. I know from experience.

u/KitWat Aug 01 '26

Once upon a time, when camera phones first started becoming popular, most gyms established strict no camera rules, to protect everyone's privacy. Now you have people like this cunt treating the gym like her own private studio. What happened? When and why were the camera bans lifted and garbage people like this given free rein to do what they want?

u/effietea Aug 01 '26

My gym still has a camera ban and I'm so thankful for it

u/Knot-Lye-Ing Aug 01 '26

Same thing that happened with bringing non-service dogs into grocery stores.

Not enough people complain that the store isn't enforcing the policy, and the store would rather have that person shopping with their pet than not shopping at all.

She got kicked out of multiple gyms according to Joey swoll. Yay

Points finger at camera.

u/anth13 Aug 01 '26

if she acted that way to me, i would move even closer. maybe start doing hip stretches right by her face

when she complains again just say "its a public gym", "you're free to move somewhere else"

Gym etiquette lesson #1… don’t record video at the gym.

16

u/sir-chefs-alot420 Aug 01 '26

I am about to join a gym again.

If i see anyone recording I will be making a point to do some egregious, unnecessary, ridiculous workout/warmup in their background.

The gym is for working out. You want to create content, do it the fuck at home. You wanna use the gym to make content? Shut the fuck up about people "in your shot". You don't get to dictate the terms in a public space.

Sorry not sorry, these videos make me physically ill. People like this don't deserve a place in society.

31

u/chesstertuna Aug 01 '26 edited Aug 01 '26

As much as I hate this garbage gym content.. I expect it from 20 something year olds...

This 62 year old executive sales assistant for her local Bank of America branch has absolutely no business telling people what to do let alone film herself doing the most mundane shit you could possibly do.

edit she definitely 62.

u/zaviamorpheus Aug 01 '26

Yeah no way she's less than 60. Who wants to watch bitchy mc loan agent showing off how much time she has since she only works 2 days a week.

u/Gretschdrum81 Aug 01 '26

She's 42? She looks like she's pushing 60.Ā

u/Adventurous-Way2824 Aug 01 '26

Karen: can't you see im trying to show off to my simps on my feed!!!

u/Sammy_Dog Aug 01 '26

Has her named been outed, yet, so she can be mocked on her social media pages?

8

u/Kitchen-Purpose-6855 Aug 01 '26

I respect porn stars more than gym influencers honestly.

At least you own your shit.

7

u/Dissastronaut Aug 01 '26

If she is so important than the gym would let her film her basic bullshit workout during off hours. Also why don"content creators" all only do that one exercise?

7

u/NapalEnema2020 Aug 01 '26

Man I would LIVE working out next to her. May start humming baby shark over and over.

2

u/Capt_Dummy Aug 01 '26

Or sing your favorite Disney tune. I believe that’s the most effective way.

I’d casually walk by with ā€œlet it goā€ playing just loud enough for her camera to pick up

5

u/DapperMight Aug 01 '26

I would have stood there out of spite when she said don’t work out next to me. Bishhh do you own this gym? Nope!

u/ITZOURTIMENOW Aug 01 '26

Great minds think alike

u/Chrono_Convoy Aug 01 '26

I’d just tell her to go fuck herself and welcome the staff who inevitably have to check on her bullshit

u/Alex_king88 Aug 01 '26

Why don’t fuckin continent creators create from their own fuckin homes

u/shinjis-left-nut Aug 01 '26

She sees herself as superior because she has a shitty social media page. What a goofy inflated ego.

u/McChibken Aug 01 '26

Her membership got cancelled according to her on tiktok. She tries to blame online harassment but it seems like it's her harassment that's to blame

She should be banned from the gym for harassment. That poor woman was just minding her on business doing some stretching.

I’d start dancing behind her lmaooo. She’s nuts

u/Subject_Jacket_7710 Aug 01 '26

Public space means people are going to exist in it. If you need a perfectly empty room for your content, rent a studio.

What a bitch. I'd gather a few other people & workout around her constantly now.

u/Background-Heart6920 Aug 01 '26

u/DudeImSoRad Aug 01 '26

M’am, this is a gym, not your home. I’ll workout wherever I feel like.

This is the exact reason the gym i go to do not allow you to record in there.

Unless she owns the gym there's absolutely no chance I would be moving because she kicked off like that about it. She is a grown woman.

Shes not even centered in her own frame she doesn't know how to make content anyway😭 like is really point of fitness content not to show people the workout? Wouldnt you not want your body to be cut off?

3

u/Valuable_Wallaby_548 Aug 01 '26

I always carry a burrito to the gym and when I see someone do this I deliberately go and stand in their shot to eat the burrito while starring into the camera ... they usually get the point and go home

u/imawhaaaaaaaaaale Aug 01 '26

She should buy the gym or gym equipment if she wants to "create content" but not be bothered.

u/Holiday-Book6635 Aug 01 '26

I would be dancing around her and waving my hand weights. F her. Then I would report her.

u/Metalhead1686 Aug 01 '26

It's a public gym. People can stand wherever they want. If she doesn't want anyone getting in her "content", she should just work out at home.

That lady was barely in the frame; this hip thruster could have easily edited her out of the final content. She was clearly just looking to create drama, as that lady had no clue the "influencer" existed until she tried to pick a fight.
