I’m a short gym girl – it’s a constant struggle, I have to get creative to reach the weights
A GYM girl has reached great heights — and stooped low by asking people for help — at the gym.
She said that being short is a constant struggle when it comes to reaching the workout equipment.
Lily (@lw_fitness) shared her big problem in a video with her TikTok followers.
The blonde sat down on an arm press machine but quickly realized she was too short to reach the bars.
After a brief struggle, a friendly bystander handed the bar to her.
“Short girl problems,” Lily sighed, as she once again failed to reach another machine.
In another attempt to do some pull-ups, the blonde jumped to reach the top of the machine, struggling to hang on.
On the leg press, a man held up the press with his arms as she completed reps with her legs, which were too short to go all the way back up.
“It really be like that,” she joked, adding a skull emoji and the hashtags #shortgirl and #gymproblems.
People took to the comments to share their thoughts on her struggle.
Many short gym girls found themselves relating: “Me on the leg press, having to call my gym partner over so he can drop it down for me to reach,” said one.
“Girl I feel that I struggle constantly,” said another.
“I’m 4’9 it makes things very difficult at the gym!” said a third.
Some were so fed up they wanted to take matters into their own hands: “So meeeee ! I even told my friend I wanted to start a short girl gym lol,” said one short girl.
