Guy Gets Kicked Out of Gym by Disrespectful Employee, Owners Do Nothing to Fix Problem

A gym goer with a large TikTok following delineated how he was kicked out of a gym for the first time in his life due to an employee's disrespect.

IFBB Pro festival bodybuilder and TikToker Mark Hunter Jr. @markusfit has a large following on social media for his fitness-related content and his candid means to training and authentic character.

As somebody who understands the do's and don'ts of using gym equipment, he used to be stunned to in finding himself in a state of affairs where he used to be getting kicked out of a gym.

He says in the video,: "So for the first time ever in my life I just got kicked out of a gym. And the gym that I got kicked out of was a very popular gym in San Diego, it's called 'TG' or 'The Gym.' Now I've been going here for like five years I've never had an issue I always re-rack my weights I always clean up after myself."

He continues, "I know plenty of people there and I'm always very respectful of the owners and the other people and the equipment. And I have never experienced anything like this. So what happened was I was using the hack squat, it was like my third exercise in and I was re-racking my weights. So I was re-racking my weights right here, I had already re-racked the weights on the other side over here."

He is going additional into the start of where issues started to move awry, "When I was re-racking my weights there was already weights on the re-rack so it looked like this. It was a 10, a 45, and a 45 that I did not use they had already been there and I did not see this 10 that was sitting there. For visual this is kind of what it looked like. So I was on this side, I couldn't even see the 10 I didn't know it was there."

The TikToker delineates what went down, "So I put my 45s over this so it was like my two 45s, these two existing 45s and then the 10. So I have my headphones on I'm like re-racking the weights and this guy comes up to me and he says something so like I take my headphones off I'm like what's up? And he goes, 'That's how you re-rack your f***ing shit.'"

Seems like a sort of confrontational method to cross about approaching any person's gym etiquette, proper? That's what this TikToker concept as neatly, hassle is, he had no idea that the dude who had accosted him used to be in fact an employee of the gym. "I had no clue this dude worked there so I just kind of look at him I'm like [gives a look] and put my headphones back on."

The trouble did not end there, "So I'm walking to my next exercise and he comes up to me he's like what's your membership number? So I tell him and I see him walk to the front." It's at that second Markus realizes the man who approached him labored at the gym.

So after walking up to the entrance table to talk to the guy he asks if the entirety's OK and after initially pronouncing the whole thing's OK the employee then tells him that he wishes to renew his membership. Markus tells him that is not a problem, arms him his card to renew it and then explains to the worker that the weights he had a problem with not being re-racked weren't his.

The guy then responds by saying, "Well that's fine, but it's my f***ing job to tell you how to re-rack them."

Markus then tells the employee he doesn't understand why he's being "so rude" and again reiterates that it wasn't his fault those weights were there in the first position.

The worker then tells him if he wants to stay on "running his mouth" then he may just go away the gym. This is correct after Markus simply paid for his membership at the gym. "Uh I just paid and he's like no you know what get the f**k out, get the f**k out of here."

Problem was once that the worker still had his card and he pointed out that he simply paid, and the worker said it is no problem, he will void the transaction, which he does, and then smacks the cardboard down with the receipt. Markus then asked him for his title and said that he would see him tomorrow at 11.

In a follow-up video, he stated that he took the time to go back to the gym to communicate to the owners, and the irate employee, Cole, to talk about what had happened. Markus says that from the get-go, while the owners of the gym were respectful in opposition to him, their communicate did not pass as the TikToker had was hoping.

Markus thinks that his video about the incident will have to've stuck their attention because the score for the gym plummeted on Google since he posted his clip to an abysmal 1.3 out of Five stars.

As it turns out, Cole seems to be a recurring problem from several individuals who mentioned that they too worked out in the similar location and feature had run-ins with Cole that weren't precisely favorable.

Although Markus pointed out that he wasn't the only one that took factor with Cole's conduct, the owners stated that Cole wasn't going any place and so they asked Markus to not display up at their gym for the following couple of weeks, presumably till things cooled down.

While the owners of The Gym did say that Cole's conduct was once out of hand, that they might best "talk to him" in regards to the incident. He stated that whilst the location is a great position to paintings out, he isn't going to be paying for a membership there to any extent further in response to how Cole treated him and the management's response to Cole's behavior.
