When Internet got wind of a leaked video of President Barack Obama lifting weights during a recent visit to Poland, the people of Twitter were plainly unimpressed. The Secret Service assured reporters that there was no threat to the president as anyone entering the hotel, including its gym, would have been checked for weapons, but some tweeters saw a different kind of threat to national security in the leaked footage.
Here’s a collection of people on Twitter hating on the president’s workout routine.
So when he's not setting loose terrorists he works out with girl weights. // do you even lift brah? http://t.co/J3svUfrgtM
