Turtle’s visit to the gym goes viral
A turtle surprised gym-goers in Florida by slipping into a gym through an open door but was safely escorted out.
People working out at a gym in Port St. Lucie, Florida, were in for a surprise when an unexpected guest visited the place. A turtle managed to slip into the Iron Knight Gym through a slightly open garage door, causing quite a stir, reported WSVN.
The gym’s manager, Nikki Baker, joined in on a unique workout session as she followed the turtle’s slow movements amidst the weight machines and dumbbells.
“It’s a turtle. I don’t know if I should pick you up; I don’t want you to snap at me. And I don’t want to hurt you,” Nikki Baker told CNN, highlighting her concern for the turtle.

Baker then employed a gentle coaxing technique and shooed the turtle out with a towel.
She added, “You always think turtles are slow, but no, this guy was going.”
After Baker’s patient efforts, the tortoise exited the gym, perhaps searching for its next unconventional adventure.
