I’m a plus-size gym girl – I get trolled for wearing a sports bra and booty shorts to work out, but I don’t care
A PLUS-SIZE gym girl prioritizes her comfort over other people’s opinions.
The body-positivity enthusiast wears a sports bra and booty shorts to the gym because that’s what she likes.
Ara (@ara.xrjourney) is on her fitness exploration, where she’ll wear what she wants when she wants to.
But harsh trolls have a problem with that even when the people around her don’t.
She posted a video of herself at the gym working out to prove people don’t mind her usual athletic attire.
Ara smiled at the camera, wearing a little black sports bra and matching booty shorts.
Her entire stomach was exposed, as were her legs.
“Take my advice,” she said. “Wear the sports bra and the shorts.”
The background switched to show her in front of other people working out.
Ara proclaimed: “Everyone at the gym is focused on their own goals.
“Went to three different sections of my gym… The gym community doesn’t care what you wear… wear the d**n sports bra and the shorts.”
Over 10,700 viewers took to the comments to share their thoughts.
While some people commended her on her confidence and encouragement, others took it upon themselves to shame her body shape.
A supportive fan said: “Don’t listen to the haters. You’re at the gym improving yourself, and thats what matters.”
“Real gym bros and girls don’t judge. We all focused on bettering ourselves,” a man admitted.
“Realizing no one in the gym cared about me at all changed my life,” another added.
A rude commenter wrote: “Interesting build.”
“Not even trying to be funny, but the fact people like this can stand on two feet is pretty like astonishing,” a mean individual said.
