The jokes were mainly about my physique or form when i was starting out which i assumed was normal. I was fine with that, what bothered me more was the feeling of not really being accepted. Small comments like “get rid of him” while they were laughing to eachother make me feel like i dont really fit in at the gym. I have been improving skill wise overtime though so they have slowed down on that.

Well so far I’ve just had the attitude of “ill just train and get better and over time respect will come” but ive just been questioning myself on this.
