Fed up, personal trainer Emily started an Instagram page called Gym Safe Ladies dedicated to calling out sexual harassment and sexism happening in gyms across the nation.
The young mother said that she has been filmed in the gym before without her consent, inspiring her to start her own gym.
Emily Williams (pictured) first experienced sexual harassment in a gym when she was just 24 years old.
Also raising awareness about gym-based sexual harassment on social media is fitness influencer Natalee Barnett, 25, who has more than 2.5million followers combined on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok.
'The staring, mansplaining, being touched, having my space invaded and feeling intimidated - women deserve to be in the gym as much as any other person,' she said.
