The Planet Fitness gym in Richmond, California is standing behind their dress code policy after one member claimed that she was told to put a shirt over her intimidatingly toned body.

As reported by KTVU Channel 2, Tiffany Austin was recovering from a car accident and getting back in shape with her first workout at the gym. However, her time exercising was cut short when a Planet Fitness employee stopped her. Austin explained, “She says, you know, ‘Excuse me, we've had some complaints. You're intimidating people with your toned body. So can you put on a shirt?’”

According to the full article at that link: Reportedly she was only told that the gym dress code prohibited wearing string tank tops, which is quite different than what the headline states. I pass no judgement on the policy, if true, but looking at her that reason for telling her to put on a shirt makes a lot more sense than " her intimidatingly toned body".
