A Dallas woman has filed suit against LA Fitness for comments and exercises her trainers made her do. She says they were sexually suggestive. You would think the suit filed would be for sexual harassment. But no, Chase Laws, the attorney who filed it, said that would be for the workplace. Instead, he filed a suit for Deceptive Trade Practices and Negligence. He reasons, as a consumer, the woman signed a contract. She lived up to her end of the bargain. LA Fitness didn’t live up to theirs by providing a safe workout environment.
Jaimie Johnson went to LA Fitness in Plano to get fit. But she says two personal trainers talked to her in ways that are unfit for anyone. She says, she questioned one trainer when he asked her to do “strange exercises.” “He would answer bluntly, ‘So, I can see your chest move while you do it. And, not in an exercising kind of way. More in a sexual way,” Johnson said. But she said nothing. She just stopped going only to return for a new trainer.
But the new trainer also made sexually suggestive comments, even sending her a vulgar text. Her five-year-old son had the phone when it came in. “That’s extremely inappropriate and I felt embarrassed and ashamed and violated,” she said. That was back in June. She hasn’t been back since. When she contacted L-A Fitness corporate offices and complained, they offered her $400. Johnson was paying $200 a month and she had signed a two year contract.
Her next move was to contact Chase Laws, an attorney. “This was probably just an effort to move this along like perhaps any other claim that may come through their door,” Laws said. He filed a suit saying Jamie Johnson had suffered traumatic emotional distress and couldn’t function through her daily activities. And, because of that, her husband suffered too. Johnson said she tried going back to a gym regularly but hasn’t been able to.
She says she wants proper compensation, though her attorney said they wouldn’t discuss what that would be. She also wants to send a message. “I would like to have these guys realize they can’t treat women this way,” she said. Her attorney said he tried contacting L-A Fitness before filing the suit. First, he sent a demand letter. Then, he hand delivered a draft petition to LA Fitness in Plano. He never heard back from them. CBS 11 called L-A Fitness corporate headquarters too but have not heard back from them yet either.

badass name for a lawyer!
-
Fat bitch was probably pissed when they rejected her advances.
-
As if anyone is going to make sexually suggestive remarks to that pig in lipstick.
-
Woa, where do I start...
LOOK at her PIC for fucks sake. Oh yea, the trainers most def wanted to see an UGLY and FAT broads chest go up and down ::) ::)
This LAZY skeez also said someone sent her suggestive texts, perhaps the suggestions were 'stop eating a huge amount of food" and "show up for your fucking sessions fatty and lets try NOT to whine after 4 reps"
I could go on....
-
all these fat, ugly, poorly dressed skanks are the ones claiming to get sexually harrassed ::)
I just wish she had walked into Squadfather's gym
-
She needs to be thrown in a pigpen. Filthy Sow.
-
She needs to quote what they actually said before I judge.
-
Roseanne looking good!

Diabeetus :(

It's always the ugly fat chicks who couldn't get raped if they stood in their bikini in a hall full of horny muslims who complain others are acting sexually inappropriately. You can bet your bottom dollar this woman's love life SUCKS and she is so angry about it she makes complaints about others who are obviously getting their fill. If I was the manager of the fitness centre, I would have told her to go fuck herself, ironically, that would help her RELAX!

LA Fitness files trainer against woman's suit for exrcises her made for do.
-
i am surprised she stopped eating long enough to wobble to the gym
-
Terrible customer and liar.
If she spent as much time exercising as she does suing people, maybe she would actually be hit on by their trainers...
-
This woman is ridiculous. The guy probably had her doing a glute bridge, planks, etc.
Typical fat slob bitch who thinks she would just go in the gym do 20 min on 3.0 on the treadmill and lose weight over night.
-
She should be buried in 6 states.
-
:)
-
200 a month eh, epic half hour session once a week.
im so glad im not a trainer anymore, dealing with these filts
-
Diabeetus :(
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Does this woman describe the exercises that she was told to do? And does she show the text that was sent to her?
-
you'd think that they would PAY HER to prevent her from doing anything sexually suggestive in the club... i garee with her lawsuit
planet fitness should not allow fat people on the premises
-
Galeniko hates her because she is fat.
-
As an attorney...I can reasonably say that is an unusual name for an attorney. I wonder if he changed his name to that. Further, I would not take that case as morivational "statements" in the gym are not always proper but they have a reason. If I sued every coach that ever said "move your lazy ass" I would be rich. The text message could sink LA fitness' ship, but we will see.
