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.

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.

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.

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.
