“Well Done Sir!”: Impressed by Gym Goer’s Heartwarming Gesture, Fitness World Approves Fitness Icon’s Message

The tremendous physical transformation stories generally unfold in gyms all over the world. But certain people couldn’t enroll themselves with a gym membership card owing to fear of bullying, body shaming, and harassment at the fitness temples. But Joey Swoll, the legendary bodybuilder steers the gym positivity movement with his social media videos. 

He often criticizes bullying, body shaming, and harassment at gyms in his video posts. The 40-year-old also makes efforts to appreciate kind-hearted people at the gym who contribute to others’ progress by lending a helping hand. And in his recent post, the bodybuilding icon Swoll shared a heart-warming video appreciating a man’s kind gesture of helping a woman at the gym. 

Joey Swoll applauded a man helping a gym-goer at her workout

In a video posted by Joey Swoll, a woman was facing difficulty reaching the bar to perform pull-up bars.  “Jumping up to the pull-up bar is genuinely one of my irrational fears”, she writes. As she struggles to catch the bar a couple of times, a tall muscular person reaches her and put his hand for a high-five.

The woman gives in to slap his hand as he raises it a bit above for the next high-five. Ultimately makes her jump to give him a high five by raising his palm to the height of the rod. This way the woman was now able to jump high and cling to the rod before proceeding with her pull-ups.

Joey Swoll said that the clip is the best example of gym positivity. “For a lot of you out there who have a lot of anxiety, a lot of fear of going to the gym because you think it is full of bullies, people are going to judge you. To help you see that is the farthest thing from the truth, ” he says in the video after the clip.
