However, there are times when individuals show true camaraderie, and Joey Swoll makes sure to shine a light on these positive interactions just as much.

“Absolutely love this video. So many people sent this to me and it put the biggest smile on my face so I wanted to share it with all of you.
Notice, when he walks in her video she doesn’t get upset, she doesn’t throw a tantrum, she doesn’t act entitled as if just because she’s filming she owns the gym. Instead, she’s kind, laughs, she even lets my man cook for a minute. I love that” Joey Swoll said.
Joey Swoll emphasizes that this interaction will most likely lead to an incredible friendship between the two of them and hopes to see this kind of positivity happen more often in the gym.

“This is the type of gym culture that we need more of but I will disagree on one thing when she says that he thought it was his friends phone. I’d say it is his friends phone because after this I guarantee these two will become gym friends and every time they see each other they’ll laugh and they’ll smile because of such an amazing memory.”
“So thank you Sereine for such an amazing video, please forgive me if I mispronounced your name, eryone go show them some love and have an amazing, amazing weekend.”
