One of the biggest laugh out loud moments in our gym came when we saw a member stroll in with the phrase 'You gotta burn it, to earn it!' emblazoned across their chest which brings us to today's quick post. Today we look at the role the funny gym t shirt has taken in the last year or so.
Rapidly increasing in popularity, this particular niche appears to have really caught the imagination of those who have been 'in the zone' training regularly for the last few years.
Whether it's sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek fun or deadly serious these simple training accessories can impact not just your workouts but your life, too. Below are the positives:
* It simply brightens up your day and reminds you to stop taking yourself so seriously
* They are a very good ice breaker
* There's nothing wrong with putting a little smile on the face of those around you
There is one possible downside here, and it's a big one. The next time you want to hit the weights with a massive "Pain is just weakness leaving the body!" or "Train insane or remain the same!" logo across your chest you must first ask yourself one thing:
Can you pull it off?
While workout humor is one thing, making yourself look silly is another thing entirely. Would "Body under construction" be more suitable than, say, "I'm the personal trainer, you're the victim!"? You need to know how to pick the most suitable thing for your current physical shape because you don't want to attract the wrong kind of attention especially in an environment which could damage self esteem if you encounter someone with an attitude problem.
The concept has really caught on in fitness circles and in our gym it's now almost an everyday occurrence when a member strolls into the fitness center reception area wearing the most ridiculous workout statement of the day proudly emblazoned on their top. Whether it's sarcasm or not, it works.
So before you push yourself in your next workout consider looking up what's available out there and see if you can add a smile not just to your face but all those around you.
