“I work at a gym and have never seen anyone do what you were doing,” one writes.
“Looks nothing like pulse squats,” another agrees.
Other commenters are angry at Ruvee for filming herself in a public place.
“Ban video recording in gyms!!” one demands.
“Cameras should be banned, and she should 100 per cent be banned forever,” another shares.
While a third writes: “It’s the facial expressions. Pulse squats is one thing but adding facial expressions to make it look like something else is where she went wrong.”
In the video, a man approaches Ruvee while asking: “What are you doing?”
She explains it’s a leg warm-up, and he replies: “I know what you’re doing.”
The man then accuses Ruvee of being ‘what’s wrong with girls’, at which point the woman asks him: “Are you pointing at me?”
He goes on to describe her behaviour as ‘ridiculous’ before kicking her phone away, seemingly breaking the screen.
Later on, Ruvee speculates that the man knew who she was and that he was angry because of her OFs fame.
“I can’t believe I’m not allowed to stretch at the gym because of what I do for work,” she shares on Instagram.
“Before I started OFs I was doing the same stretch before every leg day,” she says in a follow-up TikTok video.
“And all the people saying that I deserve to have my phone kicked, I deserve to be harassed in public because I was minding my business in the smallest corner of the gym… is there a rule that says no phones? No there’s not. Was it on a tripod? Was I being obnoxious? No, I wasn’t. Was I being loud? No.
“So it’s really sad to me to see all these comments saying that I deserve something because I went to the gym and was stretching.”
There has since been some speculation on X, formerly known as Twitter, about whether or not the video was a staged skit.
My Husband Only Fed Himself, Ignoring Our Hungry Kids and Me — I Gave Him a Stern Lesson
Life sure loves to test us with its unexpected twists. Just about a month ago, I faced a situation that really made me rethink the dynamics in our family. I’m Nancy, and here’s a little glimpse into the rollercoaster that my life has been lately.
I’ve been the primary earner for most of my marriage to Liam. I was always bustling around, serving tables at a downtown restaurant. That was until I broke my leg. Suddenly, I was thrown into a reality where I couldn’t work, and our family’s financial buffer started to thin dangerously.
Liam has tried to pick up the slack with various odd jobs here and there, but it’s hardly been enough. With money tight and my medical bills piling up, our household has been under a lot of stress. Our three kids, though young, feel the tension and I hate that they have to see us like this.
We’ve had our fair share of ups and downs in our seven years together, but nothing quite like this. From dealing with the usual chaos of raising kids to navigating financial worries when we bought our first house, we’ve managed to stick it out together. However, the current strain is showing us in a new light, particularly Liam.
Yesterday was particularly hard. It was one of those days that dragged on, each minute slower than the last, and by the evening, the kids and I were practically starving. Our fridge was nearly empty, echoing the hollow feeling in my stomach. We were all eagerly waiting for Liam, hoping he’d bring back something to eat.
When he finally walked in, the relief was palpable. That relief turned to disbelief when he pulled out just one single meal from a bag – a burger for himself. The kids watched wide-eyed as their dad started eating in front of us without a word.
Shocked, I managed to utter, “Aren’t you going to share?” His response floored me. “If I’m the only one working, I deserve a treat when I want one,” Liam declared, dismissing my shocked expression.
His words lingered in the air, heavy and cold. He suggested I should manage our food supplies better, leaving me stunned and speechless. It felt like a slap in the face. I couldn’t believe he’d become so indifferent to our situation.
That night, I lay awake, his words replaying in my mind. The image of Liam eating while our kids looked on hungrily was etched into my memory. It was clear that something had to change. We couldn’t go on like this; the kids were watching and learning from our actions.
Determined to make Liam understand the impact of his actions, I decided on a plan. The next morning, I got up early despite my leg pain and prepared breakfast with what little food we had left – just enough for the kids and me.
When Liam came to the kitchen and realized there was no food for him, he looked confused and asked, “Where’s my breakfast?”
I responded calmly, though my heart was racing. “Since you’re the only one working, I thought you’d prefer to treat yourself again. You also suggested I portion better; perhaps you should have considered that before eating a meal for one in front of your hungry family.”
The tension in the air was thick as Liam processed the lesson I’d mirrored back to him. It was a hard moment for both of us, but necessary.
The day passed with a heavy silence between us. Liam left for work without a word, and I was left to reflect on everything that had unfolded. It was a painful reckoning, but it sparked a change in Liam that I hadn’t seen coming.
To my surprise, Liam came home that evening not just with apologies but with groceries to cook us all dinner – something he hadn’t done since our early days together. As we sat down to eat, he looked at me with genuine remorse and said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t realize how much I’ve been taking you and everything you do for granted.”
He admitted the pressure of being the sole provider had overwhelmed him, and he had lost sight of what was truly important – our family. It was a heartfelt moment of vulnerability that brought us back together.
We ended the day with a newfound understanding and appreciation for each other’s struggles. Liam’s act of cooking dinner and his sincere apology showed his commitment to mending our relationship and supporting our family through these tough times.
From that day on, Liam made sure to include us more in his decisions and efforts, recognizing that we are stronger together. It was a tough lesson learned, but it reminded us of the importance of empathy and teamwork in our marriage. And for that, I am grateful.
