Unprofessional Behavior of Gym Employee Frightens a Fitness Influencer
A fitness influencer visited a gym and, in just a few minutes, a gym employee pulled out her contact information and left her a creepy voicemail as he was watching her during her workout session.
There’s a feeling of alienation when you visit a place full of unknown people, especially gyms. It usually subsides as you get to know everyone but the very first day might increase your anxiety. This mostly roots to the fact that other gym members might be staring at you while you’re busy with your workout.
However, a fitness influencer on TikTok, @kenyastephh, had the worst experience when she visited a new gym. The incident occurred in a span of just a few minutes. One of the gym workers went through her records to find her phone number and left a voicemail, which was a “scary” moment for her.
She said that she was there in the gym for not more than five minutes and a worker found out her phone number from the gym pass and left her a voicemail. Also, she was at the back corner of the gym, so she wasn’t too visible. She added that it was “scary” to be around guys who do such things to get a response from a girl.
Moreover, she has also uploaded a clip of the voicemail in which the worker has mentioned that he had been watching her doing “glute spreads.” In the voicemail, he goes on like “Hello this is EOS Fitness … we saw you doing glute spreads." And before she could figure out anything else about the man, the audio was cut off. The woman, being horrified by the experience, made an appeal to all the men to not do things like this as it makes it terrifying for any woman and that just adds up to the worse experiences. She hopes that this wouldn't be an issue for other women.
She added: "I wasn't in the room for more than five minutes and I got the call and I always wear a jacket around my waist to avoid this stuff. I was just trying to take some pictures before my workout. Also, I'm visiting as a guest on my friend's membership." People have supported the woman, with someone describing it as “stalker behavior” and telling the woman to inform the supervisor about this activity so that it doesn’t happen with anyone else. The second wrote that the man had “crossed a line” while the other one terms it being “unprofessional.”
The woman then added in the comment section that she has deleted her phone number from the records and will be removing her name as well. She had been going to the gym under her friend’s guest pass and he still managed to get her private information. She added: "I lost count of how many gyms I’ve switched to, so that’s why I’m under my friend's guest pass because now I’m changing gyms again."
