Is Your Trainer Touching Too Much?

Imagine hiring a personal trainer and suddenly getting way more hands-on attention than you bargained for. Arya Rae shared on TikTok that her trainer kept squeezing her butt, claiming it was to "fix her form." Some folks say a little touch is normal for muscle activation, but repeated, unexplained contact—especially in certain areas—is a big red flag. Pro tip: Trainers should always ask before touching and explain why. If it feels off, trust your gut! #Fitness #PersonalTrainer #GymLife
