Viewers have urged a woman to get a restraining order after she confronted a man who allegedly took a photo of her while working out at the gym.

Janelle Rodriguez, who goes by the handle @j_rodriguezxo, took to TikTok to share her story about an alarming incident at the gym.

Watch the first video:

The first clip was captioned "Creep exposed," and showed the TikToker approaching a man at Planet Fitness. She can be heard asking him: "Hi, how you doing? Someone just came and told me that you took a picture of me?"

The man - who claims his name is "Bob" - denies the accusations, which prompts Rodriguez to ask to see the camera gallery on his phone, which he quickly declines.

She then tells him that she is going to ask employees at the facility to review the footage from security cameras.

Watch the second video:

In the second TikTok, the man finally agrees to show his camera to Rodriguez and begins flicking through. The TikToker then tells him that she's "just trying to get to the bottom of it".

However, after turning his screen to show the image, she penned in the overlay text: "He didn't show me the most current pic, I saw a close-up of my butt on his phone."

Understandably outraged by seeing a photo of herself on the man's phone, Rodriguez starts yelling at the man: "Delete it right now, before I make a f***ing scene!"

In the third clip, an angry Rodriguez continues to shout at the man, telling him: "Delete it right the f*** now, that's very disrespectful - how dare you!? How dare you take a picture of me while I'm working out - take a picture of my a**!"

All the while, "Bob" repeatedly tells her to "relax" as he tries to exit the gym - but the woman prevents him from doing so.

In a final follow-up, she tells the man that her "body is not for you to f***ing take a picture of!" and instructs him to prove that he has removed all the photos of her from his phone - including the ones in the "Recently Deleted" folder.

Many users were left angered by the incident and took to the comment section to encourage Rodriguez to file a restraing order against the man.

"Just charge him..easy..get a restraining order... done," one person said, while a second added: "These creeps need to be exposed. I love how strong I are. U r right to be angry and hurt and stand up for yourself."

The gymgoer's video exposing the man amassed millions of views on the social media platform.

She claimed in another video that "not once" did any member of staff from Planet Fitness come to check on her to see if she was okay even though they witnessed the entire incident.

Rodriguez also revealed that "Bob's" gym membership was revoked.
