Woman Dumbfounded After Planet Fitness Says Her T-Shirt Violates Their Dress Code

Woman Dumbfounded After Planet Fitness Says Her T-Shirt Violates Their Dress Code

A woman was asked by a Planet Fitness staff member to cover up or leave the premises because she was purportedly violating the gym's dress code.

The allegation was confusing given the fact she was fully clothed in leggings and a short-cropped T-shirt.


Alana, whose TikTok handle is @pennevodkaplease, posted a video explaining what happened. It was viewed over 100,000 times.

Her caption indicated what would happen as a result of the incident.

"Time to find a new gym."

The background image for the clip was of her fully clothed and taking a selfie in front of a mirror.

The text across it read:

"Planet Fitness employees telling me this outfit broke their dress code."

"Umm, if you don't like me, that's fine," Alana said of her encounter with a staff member, adding, "watch your mouth."

When asked in the comments what the problem was, she replied:

"They said my shirt was too short so I should pull my shirt down and my leggings up more."

The fitness chain touts itself as a "Judgement Free Zone," something one commenter sarcastically pointed out.

According to Planet Fitness's website, there is no specific ban on crop-tops mentioned; however, the company vaguely stated they would ban outfits that could be perceived as "intimidating" or "offensive."

"We're all for people expressing themselves, but do ask that clothing that may be perceived as intimidating, revealing, or offensive not be worn in the club."
"We also do not allow clothing that may present safety hazards or damage equipment."
"Examples of clothing that is not allowed include: open-toed shoes or sandals; mud-caked, greasy, or soiled shoes or clothing; jeans or pants with prominent grommets and clothing with messaging that a reasonable person may find offensive or otherwise inappropriate."

A spokesperson addressed the incident and said the gym's location was taking action after one of their employees made a poor judgment.

"We sincerely apologize for the unfortunate incident that took place at our Fairfield, NJ location."
"In this instance, a staff member enforced a company dress code policy in error. We are working closely with the local franchise owner to reeducate our staff on current policies."

They added:

"We have also contacted this member directly to personally apologize and look forward to welcoming her back into our clubs."

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams Roasted After Viewers Notice Awkward Detail In His 'Morning Routine' Video

New York City Mayor Eric Adams was widely mocked after he shared a video on social media of his "morning routine," with time stamps showing his activities—only for viewers to notice that a standard black-and-white wall clock visible in part of the video showed a very different time.

Adams jumped on the latest Instagram trend this week, sharing his version of a “morning routine” video with his followers. The trend, which has already begun to fade, typically features sped-up clips of people going through their early rituals—complete with edits, ambient music, and timestamp overlays.
