“Call Them Clowns”: Enraged at Falling Standards of Gym Culture, Joey Swoll Calls Out Fitness Enthusiast for Lack of Inclusivity
Joey Swoll, also known as Joseph Agostinelli, has effectively established himself as the CEO of fitness positivity in the world of bodybuilding. Fitness enthusiasts are always on the lookout for ways to improve community justice and point out any instances of improper gym behaviour.
And his most recent post was no different. He has once again shown that generalising about a certain gender frequently results in unjustified charges and that it is crucial to keep one’s own business to oneself at the gym. A gym-goer was reprimanded by Joey Swoll for invading the men’s private rights in the facility.

Recently, Joey Swoll uploaded a video on his official Twitter account, @TheJoeySwoll, in which he expresses his utter disappointment in a female fitness fanatic. She can be seen on the video filming all the males working out in the gym while writing, “Me watching men’s behaviour at the gym,” and calling them clowns with emoticons.
He was upset by the fact that she kept falsely accusing the guys even though they were just working out and weren’t troubling her at all. I genuinely have no idea what these men are doing incorrectly in this video, he claims. Are you fighting males for merely existing at the gym because they tried to talk to you, disturb you, or harass you? Did one of them try to perhaps capture a video of you?
She had been photographing them without their permission, so he pulled her out and said, “You want make a video to criticise their behaviour and brand them clowns? You are the only person in this video acting like a clown. You must perform better. Respect your own privacy. For those who call out other gymgoers for no apparent reason for interfering with their training, Joey Swoll has a zero-tolerance policy. He once even instructed others on what to do when a person exercising does not have proper form.

Joey Swoll once tweeted his thoughts about interfering with newbie gym attendees’ training routines and making fun of them for not doing it properly. You have two choices if you witness someone exercising improperly or without knowledge in the gym, he wrote. Option 1: kindly offer to assist them in learning.
And for those who are not at all bothered when they detect a novice. He said, “Option 2: Mind your own business and leave them alone.” Additionally, he highlighted what ought to never be done. “Them (new/inexperienced lifters) to post online to make fun of them.” Express your thoughts on this in the comment section. What’s your opinion of him?
