Gina, who posts to TikTok using the handle @ginaveelay, said she’s never going back to the gym after the creepy interaction.
“Be careful out here girlies cause wtf,” Gina captioned her video.
Gina explains the situation in her video, beginning by saying that the “creep” entered her “personal bubble” during her workout.
“The gym was practically empty and so many corners to be in and he chose this one,” the on-screen text read.
“I’ve been in this corner for 10mins before him and only had one set left.”
The man can be seen moving around behind her.
“So I started recording him so now we’re all uncomfortable together,” the on-screen text continues.
“He was literally staring at my pikachiu before this.
“I am never coming back to this gym,” the text continues as the man moves almost directly behind her.
Gina’s video has been viewed more than 954,000 times.

Some felt that the man’s behavior was inappropriate while others felt that the gym belongs to everyone.

“It’s a gym and a shared space,” another chimed in.
“yes yes, be careful girlies because some guy will try to workout in a gym while you’re also in a gym,” someone else wrote.
