EXTREMELY EMBARRASSED AT WORK

How did she know for sure it was you? She is a peeping tom! (No offense to anyone named Tom!) If she is a peeper, she clearly would have seen you doing whatever it was you were doing!

She said the other lady came out of her stall while OP was washing her hands and saw that it was her.

First off. LMFAO... Second, this:

I think doing squats in a stall is much weirder than masturbating in there.

IMO

SO many questions about the logistics of all of this. How big of a stall is this that you can do squats in there? And how did she not see you once you were near the floor? And why, when she heard the noises, did she not look and see you obviously squatting in the gigantic stall which I assume had a standard stall door? I need MythBusters.

...and OP?

Because after i finished up my squats i went to wash my hands and fix myself up and she came out the stall a few seconds later. It was only us in the restroom

That's when you talk to her, saying "Wow, that was tough doing the squats challenge, my friends and I on facebook are doing it every morning, adding more squats every day, have you heard of it?" and demonstrate a partial squat for her, avoiding this whole scenario.... but now...complain to HR first, you have to now...

Then, do squats daily before your shift in the bathroom OUTSIDE the stall in full view, keeping count, telling everyone who enters that "now you have to do them outside the stall since dirty minded people assume rude things and spread rumors" and talk to them about your squat challenge and ask them if you want to join. That should clear it up after a few weeks...and force people to either complain about you doing squats in the bathroom to your boss (thereby clearing up what you are actually doing), or accept you do squats in the restroom.

But really, bad, bad choice of place all around, I'd never want to inhale deeply in the bathroom for my work out...but now, you just about have to do it, or else the other idea will stick for everyone.

Q&A: The Surprising Phenomenon of Exercise-Induced Organisms
A first-person coreganism testimonial

According to a new study by s*x researchers at the Indiana University, women having organisms during exercise is a real phenomenon. As far as the researchers know, this is the first study that deals directly with exercise-induced organisms (EIO), known colloquially as "coreganisms" because they tend to occur during core-strengthening workouts, like sit-ups and crunches. Coreganisms began making the rounds on the internet and in women's magazines back in 2007, when an editor at Men's Health blogged about them. But as far back as 1953, a study by pioneering s*xologist Alfred Kinsey found that 5 percent of women experienced organisms during exercise, and that figure was likely low because the researchers hadn't asked about EIOs specifically.
