Awesome Jelly<\/p><\/div>\n

A lot of the people you meet are constantly trying to be healthy. Hence, you see all kinds of individuals when you hit the gym. If you\u2019re there regularly, you\u2019re bound to run into something hilarious, something that will make you guffaw so loud that other people might just end up wondering what was so funny. And it\u2019s a good thing too, because workouts aren\u2019t always fun. In fact, sometimes you may even dread them. As you\u2019ll scroll through some of these opportune moments, you\u2019ll actually come to realize that it takes all kinds to make the world and many of these characters actually make time to lift weights and burn some calories.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Balance Everything<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

We all have body issues. We first go to the gym assuming that we\u2019ll concentrate on a certain body part in order to tone it. However, gym coaches cannot stress enough on a balanced workout. If you just focus on one part, you just might end up looking like this guy. He obviously wanted to add some buff and worked hard to achieve those powerful-looking shoulders. However, he did forget to consider how his legs might look if he disregarded the lower body exercise altogether. We bet you he thinks that he looks like a chicken just about now.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Added Weight<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

There are dedicated parents out there that just can\u2019t leave their babies alone, not even for a few minutes. Kudos to them! But then again, there\u2019s also such a thing as taking it too far. This little one seems fine, but upon closer look, things aren\u2019t as safe as they look. Overhead, the dad is holding up a heavy set of weights. One mistake and this could easily land on either head. While it makes for an adorable picture, we urge everyone to please not try this stunt.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Fast Food to Health<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

What does Ronald McDonald do during his spare time? Why, try to burn some calories, of course. This definitely looks like an ad that tells people just how healthy fast food can be, but we all know that the franchise\u2019s salad is still packed with tons of calories that would take a normal person hour upon hour to burn. Maybe he should actually lift some weights to burn all the unwanted calories out of his system. After all, it may be time to do so if all he did was super-size everything he ordered.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Do the Plank<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

Ab workouts are undoubtedly difficult. This is why people opt to do the plank in order to avoid doing all the cardio work that usually go with the exercises. However, take a look at this girl. Is she doing the plank and hope that osmosis will take its course by staying on top of the weights or did she just pass out from exhaustion? No one can really say. However, we can only hope that some kind soul woke her up and told her that it may be time to go home and move on. She\u2019s clearly not cut for the gym life.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Human Jenga<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

If you can\u2019t use weights, why not use your friends and stay yourself on top of each other? This makes for a good workout. It takes strength, willpower, and sheer stupidity. In order for them to do this, they must all have impressive core strength. In reality, however, this stunt can be dangerous. A little nudge from an obnoxious bystander, and they could fall down like a house of cards and actually injure the person at the very bottom of the pile. But hey, if weights aren\u2019t available, this may have been the next best thing for them.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Game Face On<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

When we\u2019re trying to lift heavy things, our facial expressions are a dead giveaway of the way we really feel. It\u2019s not an easy task, which is why people in the middle of an exercise don\u2019t often like to have their picture taken. This guy was clearly in the middle of a challenging routine. His friend apparently saw the labored look on his face and thought it was hilarious. And the ever-supportive friend photobombing in the background clearly thought so too. He took it all in stride, of course, but he never expected this to be a meme that the world of the web would be privy to.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Gym Buddy<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

Have you ever seen a dog doing the downward facing dog in the gym? It\u2019s a sight to behold. This man decided to put his free time to good use and get some exercise. And what better way to work out than go with a friend? In this case, it\u2019s his furry pet, and it\u2019s adorable. He never expected his companion to copy his movement, but lo and behold, he did. The puppy dog eyes can melt anyone\u2019s cold heart and if we did see this every single day at the gym, we\u2019re sure that we won\u2019t miss a chance to sweat a bit.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Taking Full Advantage of Time<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

Preening and exercising don\u2019t usually go hand in hand, but this lady managed to pull it off so effortlessly. We feel that she had to fix her hair, and instead of sitting on the couch and waiting for the curls to set, she decided to hit the gym and situate herself at the nearest workout bench. She deserves a medal for this because not too many people will venture out when their hair looks like this. We can only assume that she\u2019s so pressed for time that she had no other choice but to resort to this. Now, no one has a good enough excuse to squeeze in some time for exercise.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Full Ensemble<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

When going out to bike, safety must always take precedence above everything else. When doing the stationary bike, it\u2019s alright to leave the safety equipment at home. After all, what can go wrong? This man, however, took everything seriously and dressed for the ride. Was he expecting to lose his balance and fall off? He must have because the helmet is there to protect his noggin no matter what happens. For now, the only thing that will be useful for is for when the ceiling unexpectedly caves in and falls onto everyone on the floor.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Those Who eventually Give Up<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

As each year comes to a close, we run into those who swear that they\u2019ll hit the gym as soon as the new year starts. We can only guess how long that resolution lasts. If you\u2019re not a gym rat and health isn\u2019t really at the top of your list of priorities, then you must end up looking like these folks who attempt to exercise but end up exploring their phones instead. We can only assume that the only thing getting a good workout here are their fingers. This is the foolish at their finest.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

The Multitasker<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

There are always those that can never give up exercising no matter what. It\u2019s a hobby that surpasses every other one that they have. As for this man, he must have fallen in love with knitting. He loved it so much that he had to take it to the gym with him. And instead of putting it inside his bag and waiting for the workout to finish, he decided to bring that half-finished sweater with him and continue with his work while he walked the treadmill. We can only hope that his dedication pays off that sweater will come out looking fantastic.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

No Better Gadget<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

When it comes to working out and making sure that you get through the usual drudgery, music helps make things more interesting. It\u2019s music for the soul and it helps pass the time. This man knows just how important listening to tunes is, but he must have lost his phone and opted for the next best thing \u2013 his tablet. It\u2019s clearly too big to lug around but he couldn\u2019t care less. He already has his pick-me-up and that\u2019s all that matters. As for the phone, who cares when his giant tablet can do the job just as well.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Hands for Feet<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

There\u2019s a good reason why gyms hire professional trainers to watch over their clients. They\u2019re there to make sure the moves are executed properly and that no one puts themselves in danger. As for this client, he may have had a hard time getting the bar off the rack and thought that his feet can do the job better than his hands. Of course, he was clearly ignorant about the danger he just put himself in. This will most likely fall on him and cause serious injury. We could only hope that some vigilant professional stopped him before it was too late.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

All about Work-Life Balance<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

Getting some exercise means setting aside time for yourself. This means that you may have to leave work or make time from school in order to burn the calories. This man looks like he has too much on his plate and is trying to find the perfect balance. He\u2019s in the gym, but he has his laptop and coffee with him. He must have had some very important meeting scheduled but still couldn\u2019t miss his exercise. We can only hope that he\u2019s getting paid a lot for all the effort he\u2019s put into it.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Cheers to Health<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Dumapaday<\/p><\/div>\n

How can you stay healthy when you love alcohol too much? The answer is easy actually \u2013 just go to the gym and do both. This grandma can\u2019t be any cooler. She\u2019s having a martini while holding a stress ball. She may be trying to psyche herself up before she hits the treadmill. Whatever the case may be, it\u2019s obvious that she can\u2019t give up alcohol in order to be healthy. And who can blame her? When you come to the gym looking this cool, people might just end up giving you the high five.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Hoping to Get Lucky<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Dumapaday<\/p><\/div>\n

The gym is swarming with girls with banging bods. This guy obviously knows this and is in it to meet some chicks. Maybe he\u2019ll be lucky soon enough. Or, maybe he\u2019ll come out looking like a total douche. In this case, the latter seems more likely. He\u2019s been distracted by some girl and he forgot about his friend. Just take a look at the man in the white shirt. He needs help immediately but his friend didn\u2019t notice just how much pain he was in. We can only wonder if they remained friends after this incident.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Shadows that Haunt You<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

If you\u2019re trying to stay healthy, you definitely need to change your diet as well as hit some time in the gym. This means that you can kiss fast food goodbye. But how is that possible when you see the shadow of a certain fast food chain in the gym? Abstaining from bad food is next to impossible. While you\u2019re working out, you\u2019ll likely think about supersizing your burgers and fries when you\u2019re done. This is definitely a classic case of one step forward and two steps back.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Can\u2019t Argue<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

So, you\u2019ve finally signed up and paid for the gym membership. Then, you start having second thoughts and regret the splurge. So, you cancel the gym membership and ask for the refund. Of course, these gym owners know how to sell and are trained to convince you to stick to your decision. There\u2019s no cause that they can\u2019t argue with. That is, until this guy came up with the perfect excuse. How can you say no to him? Hey, if he wants to live his life overweight and unhealthy, then so be it.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Only the Best<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

Your dream is to always move up the fitness ladder when you\u2019ve been religiously hitting the gym. We all know that the road is long and hard, but when you see yourself being more and more capable of lifting heavier weights, that alone is in itself rewarding. Well, someone decided to play a prank and put Thor\u2019s hammer on the rack. That may be the heaviest thing to wield and only the worthy can do so. We could only bet that some guy actually gave in to temptation, albeit bogus, and lifted it himself.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

All the Moral Support<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

How do you convince someone to hit the gym more often? Give him moral support, clearly. And what better way to do that than to hire a marching band to serenade him while he tires himself out on a treadmill? We can only wonder what the crew was doing, but the guy alongside them didn\u2019t seem to mind at all. In fact, it looked as if the music egged him on to work harder. If what he needed was inspiration and a sign that day to start living healthy, then the answer definitely hit him squarely on the face.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Training to Fight the Rebellion<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

Only true Star Wars fans can understand this, and when they do, it\u2019s nothing short of hilarious. The man in the hoodie surely didn\u2019t give his getup much thought. He must have rolled out of bed and grabbed the most comfortable workout getup available in his closet. Then, he innocently drove to the gym and started his workout as per usual. Unfortunately, he simply didn\u2019t realize that the hood that covered half his face made him look menacing. He definitely had an uncanny resemblance to Emperor Palpatine. Maybe he really is the actual villain and is training to fight against the resistance.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Definitely Cost Effective<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

Hey, we\u2019ve all been there. During some months, money may be tighter than usual. This woman must have been at the end of her rope and just needed to watch TV. And perhaps she figured that the gym membership was way cheaper than cable. Sure, she\u2019s not working out. In fact, she sitting on a treadmill that someone could have used. But who cares?! She\u2019s got her shows and she\u2019s now more than fine. In fact, she looks more comfortable than ever. The other patrons must have been jealous.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Contortionists at Their Finest<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Bored Panda<\/p><\/div>\n

Look at his arched back \u2013 it definitely looks strange. This guy must be a professional contortionist. But what\u2019s even stranger is the fact that his face is a breath\u2019s width on someone else\u2019s balls. If this isn\u2019t strange for you, then we don\u2019t know what is. However, these boys don\u2019t look like they care at all. They\u2019re both at the gym to get some workout done and support each other. This is definitely true friendship. Weird, but can you think of two closer friends?<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Weight Hoarder<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Tie Breaker<\/p><\/div>\n

From the looks on the number of weights this man has on him, we can only guess that no one is quite happy with him. How else can everyone exercise when he has all the equipment with him. More importantly, no one should attempt to do this stunt at home. Not only is it dangerous, it\u2019s impossible as well. He may have the trusty trainer by his side, but the pressure applied to his lower body isn\u2019t healthy. To stroke your ego is fine, but to tread on the precarious is nothing but stupid.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Fashion Statement or Fashion Faux Pas?<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Tie Breaker<\/p><\/div>\n

When it comes to footwear, sneakers are the obvious choice when headed to the gym. This woman, on the other hand, went against every rule in the book and wore heels. Either she really didn\u2019t care what she wore or she\u2019s trying to juggle her schedule. She had a hot date to attend to right after and had no time to go home and change. This girl had places to go to and while squatting may be harder to pull off in heels, she\u2019d rather save time than spend a few hundred dollars for the recommended shoes.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Heroes are Real<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

If you\u2019re a fan of The Fantastic Four, we already know who this man reminds you of. The Thing apparently had a cousin and this man is definitely it. In reality, though, he\u2019s just trying to lift something so unbelievably heavy that his veins have actually popped out. Although the man behind him could probably almost swear that he\u2019s able to see the outline of his brain. Well, not to worry because this hulk of a man does look like he knows what he\u2019s doing and that he doesn\u2019t need help at all.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Extension of His Home<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

They say that you need to come as you are, wherever you may be. You need to feel comfortable in your own skin because that\u2019s when you can truly relax and enjoy. This man clearly took the old adage to heart and wore the most comfortable thing he could think of. He must have come straight from the shower or he may be on his way to the sauna. Whatever it may be, he\u2019s definitely in something unconventional. He didn\u2019t realize that someone would take notice and share this picture for the whole world to see.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Exercise Your Brain<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

Do you remember when your teachers would tell you to read because it was good brain exercise? Yes, they were right. This man definitely remembered what he was told and must be trying to get a good head workout. Of course, that\u2019s really not the case. He was trying to figure out how to use the machine and assumed that the handle served as a head band. He has yet to fully grasp the full concept of each machine. We also hope that a trainer eventually found him and gave him the help he needed.<\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

Tall Guy Problems<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Cloud Front<\/p><\/div>\n

Gyms cater to every clientele available \u2013 big, small, young, old, tall, or short. Well, most of the establishments anyway. This gym clearly offered the membership package to the wrong man. They clearly underestimated his height. He got a good deal for the workout, but he was too tall for the room. Not to worry, because he definitely found the perfect solution. He pushed a tile on the roof out of the way, and voila! He now had a treadmill that was able to accommodate his gigantic frame.<\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
