An Anytime Fitness location in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, has issued an apology after the gym posted an “I Can’t Breathe” workout regimen, a reference to some of the last words uttered by George Floyd, the 46-year old African American man who was killed after a police officer pushed his knee into Floyd’s neck for nearly nine minutes.
The workout regimen appears to have been posted on a whiteboard sign, and featured a group of exercises along with the words “I Can’t Breathe,” the words Floyd repeated as he was on the floor with a police officer’s knee pushing against his neck. The sign also had a stick-figure type person kneeling on the floor, and the bottom of the sign shows the words “and don’t you dare lay down.”
