A 27-year-old woman joined a gym to engage in low-impact exercises due to joint pain caused by her being overweight. After signing up, she was introduced to a personal trainer to help set up the gym’s app. However, the personal trainer took advantage of the situation to push an expensive personal training package on her. The woman’s refusal led to the trainer using personal information to guilt-trip her, ultimately leaving her in tears. Now, she’s considering canceling her gym membership due to the insensitive behavior of the personal trainer.
