Committing to an intense fitness regimen requires dedication. But early-morning workouts can also expose young athletes to serious safety vulnerabilities. One Arizona creator Riley Meyer (@risprivstory) allegedly found herself in a stalking situation when she used to hit the gym at 4:00 AM during her high school freshman year.
For Meyer, her ambitious freshman-year workout routine turned into an alarming ordeal with an older teen who didn’t understand boundaries. She unpacked the full story in a TikTok storytime sitting at over 81,000 views. According to her, an innocent offer for a commute turned into obsessive, stalker-like behavior in less than a week.
