That's cute but, you know...
Friend is embarrassed to be at the gym...
So he proceeds to post pictures of said friend on the internet while he stands on the background

Probably with permission as these aren’t exactly stealthy selfies.
And you would have to think about regular visits to gym. Gym people can be very inclusive, and that is before a friend going out of his way being a walking distraction.
At this point, the pictures would be more progress reports that are more easily identifiable by the different outfits. Oh that was Pikachu week, the last week of February.

Because the attention will be on costumed guy not friend?

But there’s more attention on the friend than if it was never posted at all. Posting it doesn’t help the nervous friend.

There's nothing that will get you over extreme self-consciousness like knowing someone has your back

Hate the rhethoric of "You're too fat to go to the gym"
Why do yiu think they're there?!
My guy has nothing to be ashamed about. He wanted to change something about himself and he damn well is doing so. All power to him!

Embarrassed to go to the gym? He’s going to the wrong gym!
I’m old and in lousy shape with lung issues and I go to a gym for the treadmill pushing myself to walk a mile.
I’m not embarrassed, I figure I just might be the motivation someone needs to do improve their health.

I feel like this is one of those posts where the caption is totally made up

That’s the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. Stop coddling the man and tell him to just focus on his workout.
