This Hilarious Video Calls Out Everyone Who Spends Too Much Time Texting at the Gym

1 minute read

Ever feel like 20-somethings spend more time talking about being at the gym than actually breaking a sweat? Or if they break a sweat, maybe it is because a text message is taking too long to type out, or worse, they sent something to the wrong person.

Such is the inspiration for the hottest gym in town, “#@THEGYM,” a fake promotional video for a fitness center that caters to millennials who won’t put down their phones to lift a dumbbell. Features include “wall to wall mirrors so you can snap the best selfie,” a staff “with accredited personal trainers who know how to get the best shot of the best you” and an Apple Genius Bar, among other hilarious amenities.

As the narrator of the parody puts it, “Come for the workout, stay for the WiFi.”
