Fitness influencer and social media celeb Joey Swoll is back with a harsh lesson to the gym goers. In his endeavor to make the gym a better and more positive place, he keeps posting videos against the people who are violating gym etiquette and posting them on social media. This time, Swoll posted a new video on Twitter and pointed to another inappropriate gym behavior video by a young man. The bodybuilding coach seemed furious about the increasing violations and suggested a simple and better option for such people. 

In this article, let us look at what the young man did and how Joey Swoll reacted.

Joey Swoll impedes such illegal behavior in gyms

Taking photos and creating videos for social media uploads has been a trend lately. The influencers like to make inspiring, funny, knowledgeable, and several other kinds of videos in the gym. However, sometimes it might hinder someone else’s privacy. Something similar happened in the video that Swoll reacted to. In the video that Swoll tweeted, a young man threatens another person in the locker room because he opposed him. Why did he oppose him? He opposed him because he didn’t want to be involved in the video he was making. But despite his disapproval, the guy said, ‘I don’t care’ and continued filming. 

However, the behavior of the young guy made Swoll furious, and he decided to respond against this behavior in his video. While telling people about the alternate option, Swoll said, “This is getting ridiculous. I am going to assume that if you have money for a gym membership, if you have money for a smartphone, that you have one of these (pointing towards the bathroom and mirrors). It’s called a bathroom at home, coming equipped with a mirror where you can take as many selfies, as many videos of yourself flexing as you want with no one around. There is a reason it says all over the walls in the locker room at the gym, ‘no filming, no recording’.”

Further, Swoll claimed the activity to be illegal and expressed his view that some people don’t belong in the gym. He continued, “People have what’s called the expectation of privacy and the right to say they don’t want to be in your video. Actually, if you do film somebody in a locker room, it’s illegal. The fact that you wanna threaten that man because he doesn’t want to be in your video tells me that you don’t belong in the gym. You need to do better. Mind your own business.”

What did the bodybuilding fans say about the video? Let’s find out.

Just like Joey Swoll reacted against this inappropriate behavior. The fans supported him as they tweeted in agreement with him. They wrote against the young guy in the video and offered their support to stop the negative gym culture. Let us have a look at a few of the replies to the tweet.

The misconduct over the illegal or inappropriate deed made the fans and Swoll more anguished about the incident. Even though they are supporting the right cause, the trend of capturing workout and training videos has grown immensely. Can this kind of misbehavior be controlled? It’s a big question for the gym community to react to.
