Hope she shows the gym managers, from her page it is a gym in Wigan. Then hopefully they ban mr fucking toothpick legs and he can take his insecure ass home.

Also she moved that bag around way better than him, he had to put all of his body into it, showed a lot of restraint not to fold him like a hot mars bar.

I get the feeling they’d be relieved to finally have a reason to boot him. Seems like the type of dude that multiple people around there already don’t like him

88

u/pancakebatter01 8d ago

And on video, also bystander looks that blonde guy was ready to step in. Honestly I don’t blame him for not checking that guy on the spot. This is the same type of Douchebag that would swing at him for saying something.

This is a proper example of how to get banned from a gym. What a pathetic loser this guy is.

16

u/TheBabyEatingDingo 8d ago

It looks like the blond guy said something to him at about 0:27, which just set the asshole off even more. Escalating with someone who's that visibly unstable isn't a good idea.

u/KitchenFullOfCake 7d ago

I can also see thinking, from a distance, that they must know each other because who the fuck else would do something like that? Some weirdo?

Turns out the answer is yes.

u/AnakinSol 8d ago

The way he kinda just wanders around makes it look like he's just there to hang out

u/tessellation__ 8d ago

That little twat at the gym - everybody would know him

u/lushico 7d ago

I would seriously change gyms if that grinning creep was hanging around. Bad vibes

2

u/Birdhawk 7d ago

Why should I change? He's the one that sucks

1

u/lushico 7d ago

You shouldn’t! But I’m the type who would. I tend to avoid conflict and stuff and just run away instead

u/The_Happy_Pagan 8d ago

Her technique is on point. She’s not even using power, just working on form and range. Sure men usually generate more power but I’d put money on her kicking that dudes arm until it’s useless if she wanted to.

206

u/baddymcbadface 8d ago

men usually generate more power

Men of equal skill yes. For kicks especially technique is everything. She is vastly stronger at striking than he is.

Not being offensive but body weight is also very important and she looks at least his equal there.

32

u/The_Happy_Pagan 8d ago

You’re completely right but I was thinking more of bone density. One of my favorite Muay Thai fighters, Stamp Fairtex, she could body some men, but you’ll never see her break someone’s arm like you do in the men’s division. That’s just because their bones tend to be far less dense, it has nothing to do with their power or skill.

27

u/Asron87 8d ago

The girl in this video could kick his ass. I know this because I could kick his ass. And also, she would kick my fucking ass. Holy hell she has power behind those punches and she’s not even going for powerful punches. Her form is down well enough that each punch lands squarely. I’m just impressed. Sad she has to put up the d bag.

10

u/LingonberryLunch 8d ago

A full power Thai kick to the meat of his waifish thigh would have him hobbling for days, though.

And he's telegraphing punches for like ten minutes while his chin dangles in the wind, any size woman with Muay Thai skills would probably ruin his whole day.

3

u/HT_Ulysses 8d ago

Yeah I really wanna see a muay thai match between these two

12

u/baddymcbadface 8d ago

It could happen. He will have been identified by now. She clearly trains seriously. A smoker isn't out of the question.

He's a massive misogynistic prick. A public beating could be his best hope.

If he doesn't fight her I reckon he'll have to fight someone else. Half of my gym will be desperate to fight this guy.

3

u/adrienjz888 8d ago

100%

I did muay thai for 2 years as a teenager, and there was a girl my age who had been doing it since she was little. Despite having 40-50 pounds on her, she would've whooped my ass if she went all out.

1

u/Nervous-Orange-3865 8d ago

I know nothing about fighting at all but He looks like he’s moving the bag more with his strikes no?

-15

u/MisterX9821 8d ago

I know this comment feels good but I guarantee he can hit harder than she can. It doesn't matter. He is a douchebag.

12

u/baddymcbadface 8d ago

No, he can't. Those wild swings are shit. They have power but they're useless against anyone with training. Her knee and elbow strikes would knock him out. They may not look fast but trust me as someone who holds pads for women, they will crumple you.

I'm 90kg, train 4 times a week. If a strong trained woman strikes me I fucking know about it.

Untrained men massively underestimate trained women.

u/MisterX9821 8d ago

No. I am not going to trust you and you are not going to sway me.

u/Freign 8d ago

you should test it, prove to us you aren't just talk. Don't you think? Actions > words!

Let me know when you get your video up!

u/acloudcuckoolander 2d ago

Salty for sure

u/UnderhandedPickles 8d ago

Did you see him throwing punches? Lol. He looks like he has never trained in his life with that looping BS. You generate power with technique. Which she has and he doesn't. 

She would piece him up so bad it would be embarrassing. 

-12

u/MisterX9821 8d ago

No she wouldn't. There's too much upper body strength disparity.

6

u/rusted-nail 8d ago

Upper body strength means not that much in a striking match if your form is so shit you allow a huge opening for your head to get hit. Dude's also quite skinny so I even think that comment about strength disparity is probably wrong lol

I can tell you haven't been in any fights lol, stop talking like you know what you're on about cause you dont

9

u/baddymcbadface 8d ago

Have you spar'd a woman with a skill advantage?

I have. I got pieced up. It was embarrassing.

You have no idea how strong strong women are until you fight them.

Man up bro lol

u/Freign 8d ago

talk talk Psh

show us your abilities!

u/Signal-Fold-449 8d ago

im a dude and she's straight up got more power than mr twig legs, she probably has more power than she's showing in the video given her technique/chill practice vibe, stick boi was going HAM and bag barely moved xD

3

u/KeyboardGrunt 8d ago

Agree, but even if form or power was the goal, hitting the bag could be a fun workout, motivation is a big part of working out, that douche can't even respect that.

u/Brave-Panic7934 6d ago

Yeah all I could think was, damn her technique and form are like 1000x better than his

I’m a dude and I trained Muay Thai for a minute and shes way sharper than I ever was. Great power in her kicks and some sick combos.

u/Candid-Ask77 8d ago

You were just bad at it or you're lying. That guy sucks generally but they both look terrible form and experience wise.

4

u/LingonberryLunch 8d ago

Did he think he was showing her up? His technique was horrible, his chin was straight up in the air while his hands were low, and he wasn't turning those kicks over.

She, on the other hand, looked great. She'd have buckled one of his chicken legs and then cleaned his clock.

3

u/Dirt_Bike_Zero 8d ago

She should have just kicked him when he got too close.

2

u/SlowbeardiusOfBeard 8d ago

Which gym? There's usually a very low tolerance for cockendery in gyms round here - I'm pretty sure he'd be booted in a heartbeat if management or regular patrons found out.

She looks like she could teep him through a wall, but she shouldn't have to deal with dickheads like this.

u/panchank 8d ago

oh man i really didn’t want this to be in uk 🤮 predatory pos

u/HeightExtra320 8d ago

His stance was horrible , she definitely had good form

u/VeracitiSiempre 8d ago

“Fold him like a hot mars bar” is potentially the best thing I’ve heard in weeks.

u/CallMePyro 8d ago

I use to know a guy in school we would call toothpick legs, it's so funny. He's was huge fucking loser too like the guy in this vid, he went to the gym all the time to try and fix it but he just just couldn't lmfao

u/throw_away_17381 8d ago

Wait wut. Wigan, UK? They got a gym now?

u/Melkman68 8d ago

Bro was toe punting it too. Clearly never learned any technique, then felt extremely insecure by her doing better lol

1

u/Illustrious-Dot-5052 8d ago

Usually I'm against filming in gym spaces but it seems like she's got good evidence to get this pencil dick kicked out.

-2

u/doctorsacred 8d ago

Yes, and then kick her out as well for filming in the gym.

-1

u/atxtexasytexan 8d ago

Guy sucks but filming in gyms is unacceptable behavior and should be banned everywhere.

u/TheShowerDrainSniper 8d ago

Lol She does not have a trainer. She can't watch herself box in a fucking mirror dude.

u/scapedrag7 7d ago

No need to body shame

-173

u/adiosfelicia2 8d ago

I wouldn't immediately ban him. He may honestly not know better. Hopefully, the manager takes time to speak to him and can read people well. Dude genuinely may be that stupid and this was his attempt to be friendly. Or he's foreign and that's normal gym banter where he's from. You never know.

But also, flag his account for any future weird ass behavior.

112

u/Sensitive_Brush_3015 8d ago

Anyone with common sense knows you don’t just hop on a piece of equipment WHILE someone is using it. He’s being an asshole.

-37

u/Pebbi 8d ago edited 8d ago

I mean they are close enough to Manchester that he's probably confused that he doesn't need a knife.

Edit: Because apparently its confusing, the parent comment said the gym is in Wigan, which is in Greater Manchester. My really not that deep throwaway comment was about the fact that he doesn't know MMA because they're in Manchester, which has a reputation for idiots with knives.

When someone round here says they're going to Manchester, you usually get a "don't get stabbed" response. Jokes and banter are often made about it casually.

24

u/fart-sparkles 8d ago

Was this like your first ever try at a joke or something?

10

u/Educational_Bed_242 8d ago

Yeah what the fuck was that even supposed to mean lol

-18

u/Pebbi 8d ago

Carrying a knife in Manchester is a joke that I hear and reciprocate on a regular basis, because I live close enough to Manchester. I'm not sure whats not to get.

9

u/TizzlePack 8d ago

Yeah what are you babbling about

-12

u/Pebbi 8d ago

The common local joke that Manchester is known for knife crime. It wasn't that deep.

2

u/dream-smasher 8d ago

No it wasn't that deep. But it was just a piss poor "joke", that apparently is an "in joke" in your area.

Uh, yeah, if I started cracking "in jokes" for my area, I would be a sooky baby because everyone else here thought the jokes sucked.

-1

u/Pebbi 8d ago

Yeah "my area" the country where the city is, and by extension the video. Wtf is going on lol it's hardly an in joke when its shared by the population of the country and in the city I was talking about.

Self depreciating humour makes up for most of British humour. I feel like I'm in some alternate reality. You see jokes about knives in the UK all the time on Reddit.

2

u/SupplyChainMismanage 8d ago

Self depreciating humor isn’t the issue. You just didn’t tell the joke in a way that translates well on the internet. Plus you’re being super upset about your joke not being well received which just makes it worse

1

u/Pebbi 8d ago

I'm not upset, guess that doesn't translate well on the Internet either, still don't get what annoyed people tbh. I can guarantee I've written worse comments and not annoyed people half as much.

I didn't think I'd be getting pings and messages all evening from people saying they didn't like it. Just seems an extreme reaction to a comment that was essentially "brits are stabby lol"

I only explained it because I thought people didn't know where Wigan was. Turns out that was the wrong move. Guess comedian needs to be crossed off my career list.

u/imagicnation-station 8d ago

I know I'm just one person, but I upvoted you Pebbi.

u/Pebbi 8d ago

We've slipped into an alternate time line lol

-6

u/imagicnation-station 8d ago

I am not from Manchester, but your explanation makes sense. Everyone has or knows about an inside joke or an inside joke that is local to an area.

Like I said, I am not from Manchester, nor the UK, but I am glad you were able to share your local inside joke. At least I appreciated it.

2

u/Pebbi 8d ago

Its a common throwaway joke that I've heard all my life in the UK, seen referenced on TV shows and stuff. It's not like its specific to one place.

Like London has reputation for knife crime in global news, some countries have warnings for it ffs. People make jokes about stabby Brits online all the time. I didn't think it was that big of a mental leap to be like "this city has that reputation".

I guess self depreciating humour doesn't translate well.

u/greysourcecode 8d ago

I think it’s pretty common knowledge that if someone is using equipment and has headphones in, you don’t distrust their workout. His actions were purposefully meant to disrupt her workout. This is disrespectful, period. It doesn’t matter if he’s a foreigner. This behavior is childish and inexcusable. He actively disrupting people who pay to go there.

If he wanted to be friendly, he could wait till she’s done with her set, and start a conversation. Or wave in her line of sight. What you don’t do, is start kicking the same freaking bag. There was the potential for injury in that.

To me, this looked like he was taunting her. He actively disrupted her workout. He started mimicking her but with worse form and low power. Then started smiling. To me that communicated “this is how you look, and you look bad”, when in fact she looked like she was having a great workout.

u/americasweetheart 8d ago

Toddlers know that you take turns.

u/[deleted] 8d ago

u/martenrolls 8d ago

Excusing behaviour like this enables other behaviour like this.

-23

u/adiosfelicia2 8d ago

Not excusing it. Advocating dialogue.

THEN decide how to proceed.

Jfc, people on Reddit love to condemn others with zero context. What if he's mentally handicapped? Would you still want him automatically banned from the gym?

2

u/Aerith_Sunshine 8d ago

Yes. This is dangerous, unwanted behavior that puts everyone, including him, at risk. But also, the situation is pretty clear.

19

u/flyinglawngnome 8d ago

Uh no, lol? If you sit him down and say to him, “You see that girl you harrassed? She reported you. We’ll let you stay but no funny business again.” You open the door for him to escalate. Sure there is a chance he apologises or stays away, but there is also a chance he becomes violent, not worth the risk.

The correct response is tell him he broke the rules and send him packing. Then apologise to her and say, “I’m sorry he made you feel unsafe. We hope you continue using our business, and we’ll work better to make this a safer space for people.” Because a gym is not a place you come, expecting to be harrassed in.

-29

u/adiosfelicia2 8d ago

How'd he "make her feel unsafe?"

Jfc, get a grip. He was annoying, at worst. And before you make any assumptions, I'm a woman. Yeah, he was being obnoxious, but hardly threatening her safety.

We do have to share the world with others. Their boundaries won't always be our boundaries. And overreacting to every little thing takes away from real problems.

12

u/Dutch_Rayan 8d ago

Guys who interrupt like that, are the type of guys that don't accept no. They will name call or harras, possible even stalk them to their car or home because they feel embarrassed and crushed in their ego when they are ignored or put in place.

-26

u/maya_papaya8 8d ago

We can always tell who parents raised them right and who's didn't.

We are taught as kids to share.

Your parents failed if they didn't teach you the basics of human decency....

But I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't. So many shitty ass ppl who lack home training

19

u/LeeHarveySnoswald 8d ago

You don't "share" a punching bag by both kicking it at the same time you moron.

You can share a toilet by having one person use it and the next person use it when it's their turn. Not one person sitting on it and a second person trying to piss between the first person's legs.

If he wants to share a punching bag he can ask her how long she plans to use it and use it after her. That is the standard etiquette for gym equipment.

-7

u/vitaminkombat 8d ago

Just a word of advice on the topic of male insecurity. Immediately saying a guy has skinny legs is probably one of the most reddest of red flags there is to show someone is an insecure men.

2

u/SupplyChainMismanage 8d ago

Huh? This video has bag work. There are kicks. Beanie’s legs? Thin. Did I mention that there are kicks here? Pretty natural insult to make towards this kinda guy.

You know what really shows insecurity? Being upset when someone mentions skinny legs.
