@matthewwri I was shook. I honestly thought fitness instructors like that only existed on TV as a joke. I will definitely avoid her class.

@twinmama I think I’m going to ask management to label her class as boot camp or something. They label the Saturday class as a hip hop ride even though it’s hardly different from any other class, so it shouldn’t be out of reason. I don’t want her fired or anything but I would have appreciated a...

@jszy04 I’m a big fan of Huel. I have three scoops of their Black formula for breakfast, 60 g of protein in one shake. Bagels can be surprisingly high in protein as well. I try to eat some kind of tofu or fake meat with my dinner to round it out.

@sandybear Thank you so much for this perspective. I would have rather been in silence than listening to her. The instructor I usually go to is awesome, if anything this makes me appreciate her more. And it sounds like you’re an awesome teacher as well.

@haybble I didn’t know Julian Michaels is like that. It makes a lot of sense that my mom follows her workouts though. I definitely regret not leaving. I was terrified she would call me out for leaving too (and because as a kid, I had to stand there and take it until my mom was done screaming)...

@dawn16 To be honest I’m not sure how they’re open but I know of another one that is too. They reduced the number of bikes.

@russty Her friend was the most bizarre part of the whole class. Never in my life have I been bitched out by another student. She has no idea what my fitness level is so who tf is she to say I’m not trying? I was stunned.

@farmkat Everyone else was very quiet, but they seemed to know what they were doing. After the class one girl said to her friend “I wasn’t cheering because I was pushing so hard so I wouldn’t get yelled at”.

@mamuka I’m just in the class to stay fit. I don’t want to change my body or anything crazy, just get some weekly exercise. And even so, I go to CrossFit as well where workouts are insanely difficult and uncomfortable for me but the coaches are highly motivational without being mean.

@dreamer6424 Thank you, I really appreciate the gym owner perspective on this. There’s a company email and phone line I think I’ll send an initial email to make sure I’m talking to the owner directly and then voice my concerns.

@breeze11 Yes she actually said “you guys should know I don’t care” to the class several times. I didn’t know if she meant she doesn’t care about her students, or she doesn’t care about complaints, or what but she never went into detail.

@peteyg My box is the same and I love it. That being said if I had to go to a gym that blasted AC I wouldn’t go because I’m sensitive to the cold and it can feel almost painful when I’m too cold for too long.

@lesterlom I am in OC, this happened in OC! Where do you teach? You can message me if you don’t wanna post it!

@beneathgreyblues I agree, but I’m going to ask management if they could put some kind of label on the class. If I had known that was the type of class it was, I would have never gone and avoided this situation entirely.

@afmtv I mean, it’s a general fitness sub. Like if you want to get specific go to a specific sub. Idk what you want to see here.

@afmtv You can just downvote it to cast your vote. Personally I feel like this is exactly the type of thing this sub is for- talking about what happened at the gym today.

@deborahjoy429 Orange County, CA is where this happened. My friend goes to another studio that’s open around here as well, I think she said hers is in Long Beach?

I’ve been going to this spin studio for roughly 2 months. The instructor I usually have is awesome, she’s always saying stuff like “no judgement, as long as you sweat!” And “this is your time, make yourself proud”. I’ve had two other instructors here who are similarly sweet. This morning I...
