I’m a short gym girl – it’s a struggle, I have to get creative to reach high equipment
A SHORT gym girl’s novel solution to reach towering equipment has gone viral.
So far her video has been liked over 331,000 times, with one fan moved to describe her as a “goddess.”
Sezen (@ssezzzenn) had to come up with something to enable her to complete her workout routines.
Being short in stature has its challenges, none more so than at the gym.
Her gym life is central to her TikTok content.
With an established following of 1.6 million, she said her aim was to “inspire.”
But she had to get her creative juices working to find a way of doing her workouts on higher pieces of equipment.
The best laid plans, however, don’t always work.
“Short girl problems at the gym,” said Sezen.
In her video, she was faced with her problem and a seemingly impossible task.
In order to get access to a particular high piece of equipment, she attempted to throw a band over the bar.
But it was a fail and it didn’t reach far enough and fell back, hitting her face.
“The struggles of being a short gym girl,” she wrote with wry amusement.
There were many who related to her predicament in the busy comments section of her post.
“The struggle is real,” moaned one person.
“It’s funny and cute,” said another.
One guy said he liked to help petite women: “The only reason I go to the gym is to help short girls,” he admitted.
The final comment, however, was prepared to put her on a pedestal.
“Damn, you’re a goddess. I would have let you use me as a step up to get up there.”
