I...Don't Even

Family Time by foundimagination
This is the second time I've seen this and I still don't think I can do it justice here. It really is one of those things you have to see.

And even then, it's kind of...well...odd.

Ok. I want you to imagine two twenty-something year old guys at the gym. Maybe one of them has a sleeve tattoo, or an earring or something, it doesn't really matter. They're attractive guys, they obviously work out and are fit.

Now, the gym I go to is a really mellow gym, and is a real mix and is generally not about how you look (which I understand some gyms are.)

And I'm sure it's possible there's something I'm missing or not understanding and possibly this is a very important technique and my wanting to giggle every time I see it is just proof of how little I know.

These two guys, go to one side of the cardio workout area, and do a synchronized free weight lifting...thing.

I mean, like, they both go through this series of moves, with their weights, at the same time. Together. Synchronized.

I can't begin to explain to you how funny I find it.

Seriously. Imagine, if you can, these two guys, and now, they're not just standing watching each other do pushups or situps or bicep curls (which is what usually happens, they watch each other so one's resting while the other's working) they do it at the same time. EVERYTHING!

I can't even describe to you how their workout goes because I can't watch it! BECAUSE IT'S SYNCHRONIZED!

Like, really. Picture a hot twenty something year old guy doing ten lunges. And now picture another good looking guy next to him also doing ten lunges. At. The. Exact. Same. Time.

I don't even know what to say.

I'm trying to be logical. Maybe they're on a sports team and this is part of their training to learn to work together? Like maybe they're rowers and it's important that they synchronize their efforts so they can do better? Right? Cuz otherwise it's...kind of .... odd.

But whatever the reason, the gym twins make me giggle.

Are you sure the gym hasn't just installed mirrors..?

You should totally go over there next time and try to keep up and see if they think it's weird. Or carry your phone with you so you can video it because I seriously NEED to see this. :P

Oh man, if I had a couple drinks in me I'd totally go and try to keep up! That's hilarious! ;)
