Travis Kelce’s Ex Spills on Gym Faux Pas That Could “Get You Slapped”
Hold onto your mug—Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend just served up espresso-hot tea about a gym move that she swears will “get you slapped.” In a rapid-fire Instagram Story on June 5, she zeroed in on the one bench-press blunder that has fitness instructors clutching their protein shakes: dropping loaded plates without re-racking them. According to her (and corroborated by fitness coach @FlexFiona and a quick People Magazine shout-out), slamming weights on an empty rack is basically a walking invitation for a knuckle sandwich. Seriously, she wrote “Plate-droppers, beware!” with a side-eye emoji that could fry your pre-workout.
I’m telling you, I’ve got thoughts and feelings, and they’re bouncing around faster than a dumbbell at peak velocity. She didn’t stop there—she also called out sweaty bros for ghosting the towel-wipe protocol, adding that leaving puddles of sweat on machines is a “hands-off offense” that might lead someone to “give you a one-way ticket to Slapville.” Page Six even snagged a screenshot of her polling fans on whether forgetting to reload plates is worse than hogging the cable crossover. (The results? Over 60 percent sided with full-on gym etiquette enforcement—no mercy!)
Sources close to Kelce’s camp say this mini-drama popped up after she bumped into a self-anointed “Iron King” grunting so loud that nearby lifters were ducking for cover. She quipped, “If your grunts register on the Richter scale, you better have the skill to match.” And just when you thought it couldn’t get juicier, personal-trainer-approved blog GymRules.org chimed in with a reminder: “Respect the rack or risk respect being lost.”
This caffeine-fueled rant has quickly gone viral, racking up thousands of re-shares and sparking #GymEtiquette debates from TikTok shadows to Bros Who Bench subreddits. Even Barstool Sports cracked a grin, dubbing her the “Glove Queen” (because she insisted on gloves to handle sweaty plates). Meanwhile, Kelce himself hasn’t publicly reacted, but insiders whisper he’s amused—nothing like a little gym beef to spice up the off-season.
If you’re hitting the weight room this week, consider this your friendly Aunt Who’s Had Too Much Coffee PSA: don’t be that person who leaves chaos in your wake. Re-rack those plates, wipe down your station, and maybe keep the simmering grunts to a low roar—your fellow lifters (and potential slappers) will thank you.
Whew, my heart rate just spiked retelling this—coffee’s wearing off, but the saga is brewing stronger than ever. I swear, I could gab about gym dos and don’ts all day. Spill you later!
