A fitness influencer has been thrown out of a gym for wearing ‘embarrassingly’ skimpy clothes.
Jessica Freitas, 33, said she was approached by a gym worker just minutes into her workout routine.
The employee slammed her favorite sportswear as “embarrassing” because it “revealed too much”.

She added that she wasn’t even given the chance to discuss the matter.
The Brazilian influencer believes she is being discriminated against.
She claimed there were “other women in the gym who were dressed the same as me but weren’t subjected to the same restrictions”.
She said the workers appeared to be “on the lookout for any little thing”, making her feel “watched and pressured”.
She said: “It’s like they were waiting for me to do something that goes against the rules.”

Freitas stressed that she wasn’t recording any videos or causing discomfort to other gym users at the time.
The influencer, who visited the gym in her home city of São Paulo, Brazil, said her outfit consisted of tight pink shorts and a black sports top.
Freitas told What’s The Jam: “I wasn’t naked or anything like that.

“I only went to train as I feel most comfortable.
“There were other girls there training in shorts and bra tops like me and they weren’t told to leave.”
Freitas slammed the gym workers as “people from the last century” and “malicious, false moralists”.
She compared the situation to a woman being kicked off a beach for wearing a bikini.
The influencer added: “This incident has damaged my image.
“It’s not like I was looking to show off or provoke anyone.”
Freitas shared a defiant post for her 180,000 Instagram fans on 27 October.
She showed off her curves in her ‘controversial’ outfit with the message: “Complain all you want, it doesn’t pay my bills.”
However, the influencer said she received a call from the gym manager yesterday (28 October).
And that they had managed to “resolve the matter amicably”.
As a result, Freitas said will “happily return” to the gym again.
