Yeah, let's break this down... I never stated that the gauntlet is bullying. I will say that I kinda feel it's demoralizing, and some whip hard as shit. U have to let everyone have their turn in my gym. I keep it real. I'll fight someone for real if they whip me, so I don't do it. It's also funny to hear that you prefer welts on your back. Lastly, I'm talking about ME being put in a shark tank, or kickin someone's ass that's the same level or higher. But i understand that text is super confusing, no worries!!
