A Texas man who was recently released from prison for the same crime was arrested at a gym after allegedly stabbing a fellow gym member in the buttocks with a knife during a dispute about the leg press machine.

On the morning of February 16, a 69-year-old man went to an LA Fitness gym in North Austin, Texas. During his workout, the man chose to use the leg press machine. While he was still using it, he was reportedly approached by a man who informed him that he wanted to use it. He told the inquirer to go use a different machine, and they walked away. When he finished using the machine the man headed to the locker room.

According to reports, the other man used the leg press when it was free. After his workout, he went to the locker room, where he was allegedly confronted by the person who was initially using the leg press. The man reportedly began yelling at him. He felt something dripping down his leg, and he believed the man stabbed him in the buttocks with a pocketknife. The alleged victim went into the gym area where there were other people.

A man who was legally ordered quarantined after being exposed to the measles reportedly snuck past officers posted at his home so that he could hit the gym for a workout.

Brookfield, Wisconsin, resident Jeffrey Murawski, age 57, was the guest of a hotel last April, and it was discovered that a family who was also staying there had the measles.

A 19-year-old college student filed a lawsuit against UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping on Monday, alleging that the fighter physically assaulted him at a local Anaheim gym in July.

The complaint, filed by Antonio Georgakopoulous, stated that the teenager was at a 24-Hour Fitness working out with a friend on July 31, when the alleged incident took place. Georgakopoulous claimed that when he picked up a set of nearby weights Bisping began shouting at him that he was already using those weights. He called Georgakopoulous names such as “idiot,” and “you little punk,” and proclaimed, “You don’t know who I am!” before choking him for a few seconds which caused him to believe he was going to lose consciousness.

A larger man at the gym reportedly intervened trying to get the situation under control. According to the complaint Bisping then requested they take the scuffle outside, but employees of the gym arrived and diffused the dispute.
