The netizen from Swoll’s clip was left with a dejected look on her face when a guy passed through while she was filming. She flexed this as if it were her anger management class. Swoll responded to this and said,” If someone walking through your video at the gym is enough to make you have to control your anger, then you shouldn’t be filming at all,” The CEO added.

He further mentioned,”Maybe you don’t belong in the gym.” The CEO highlighted that because of the people like her in the gym, many want filming banned in the gym. Swoll also thinks that filming in the gym should be banned so that cyberbullying can be controlled and everyone can focus on improving themselves. 

Swoll advised the netizen,” If you want to film somewhere where no one’s going to walk through your video, you can do as you please; build a home gym.” He then captioned the clip with a suggestion of his own, “Influencers will now need anger management when someone’s walks through their video.”

This is not the first time Swoll has addressed netizens on this matter. He recently supported a kid bullied by a man for the same reason.
