The incident happened a while ago, but Julia found it hard to share but decided to post the clip on TikTok and ask her followers what they think about the situation.
In the video, you can see the man walking around behind her, briefly crouching with his phone in hand, pointing it in her direction, almost immediately getting up and walking over to his friend, handing him the phone.

In the end, she did tell the gym staff what happened and they too spoke to the man, who got even more upset en stormed out of the gym.
She also shared that she doesn't know if he has been banned from the facility or not as she herself has not yet been back since the incident.

After posting about it on her Instagram the guy had also found her social media and started messaging her denying that he did anything wrong.
Hopefully, Julia will be able to regain her confidence, feel safe and get back to creating the content that she loves soon.
