We scoured the internet to find the funniest, strangest, and most jaw-dropping photos captured at the gym, and boy are there some doozies. Here are the 45 wildest moments caught at the gym–we promise you won’t break a sweat!
Happy Hour
It’s important to stay hydrated when working out. It’s also a great way to relax your muscles after you work out.
Disclaimer: please do not drink and gym!
Nice Try Tho
Whether that was on purpose or not, it looks like it hurt.
The woman next to him certainly seems to be getting a kick out of it and that probably;ly wasn’t the reaction he was hoping for before showing off at the gym.
The Perfect Place for a Nap
Maybe someone will wake him up when they want to use that piece of equipment.
I’m sure he’s dreaming of working out.
Making Yourself at Home
This guy is taking “I Live at the Gym” to a whole new level.
He’s so tired, perhaps he’ll just take a nap right here. Wake him up when it’s time for work.
Gotta get them started early.
It’s never too late nor is it too early to start exercising.
By the time he’s older, he’ll be able to lift a building!
Because Everyone Needs a Mint Condition Treadmill
In all honesty, though, this guy seems to have the right idea.
Before COVID-19, this would have been a lot funnier. But now it’s like, “innovative.”
This guy looks fired up!
Sure, there’s nothing safe about hoverboards and booze in the gym, but he sure looks cool…
Certainly looks like he’s having a better time than the woman behind him.
Give us this day our daily gym
Thus gym looks just about as empty as when it was a church…
Be sure to drop and give 50 push-ups for Jesus.
Umm…is this allowed?
Idiotic or Genius? Only you can decide.
You might think about questioning your other life decisions if you are going with the latter option.
Pick Up After Yourself
Hey, I’m willing to be humiliated if it gets me out of work.
Of course, there’s probably a lot of girls that are stronger than a lot of dudes at the gym.
Funny or scary?
Don’t mean to parent shame or anything, but I’m pretty sure they have gyms with child care services.
Just keep focusing on how cute this is and not how it’s incredibly dangerous..
Hey, what people want to do in the privacy of the gym is their business…
Is this downward-facing dog?
Wouldn’t really call myself a yoga expert, so correct me if I’m wrong.
This is painfully true.
The push-ups still count if they are on the knees right?
Who cares if my head stays on?
I'm sure reading burns a few calories too.
Turning the pages can take quite a bit of effort, especially if you have arthritis.
She’ll get to the weightlifting just as soon as she reads her way through the funny papers.
Why buy a bed when a yoga mat will do?
To be fair, sometimes yoga can be really relaxing.
Particularly after you’ve tried bending places you didn’t even know you had.
Who needs Photoshop?
Man, oh man, look at them pixels! I mean muscles.
hey, you can’t blame a guy for trying though. A for effort!
Whatever it takes to get motivated.
It can be tough getting motivated to go to the gym, so bring the motivation with you.
Sit-ups just aren’t any fun without the promise of reward.
Flying High
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a perfectly timed screenshot!
He’s either flung back by his treadmill or he’s super excited to start working out.
So is this a workout session or an exorcism?
He does know he’s supposed to face the opposite direction?
This probably violates some gym safety rules. We’re guessing they don’t want any liability lawsuits afterall.
The inevitable lawsuit probably won't be as cute as the kid…
I think if there is one rule most gyms have it’s that kids can’t use their equipment.
We don’t know what is going on at this gym but we’re sure this is definitely not a safe way to use a treadmill.
That moment when you regret your decisions…
Sure, in the moment it seemed like you could lift a ton but now you are in a precarious situation.
Perhaps it’s time to abandon ship and get some help, quietly if possible.
In case there's any confusion: this is not okay.
Towels you wrapped around your waist after a shower barely hold on.
There’s no way this towel is staying on even at the lowest speed setting.
Even superheroes have to watch their figure.
Batman doesn’t even have any powers, so it’s no surprise he needs to work hard to stay in shape.
Surely, this deleted scene from The Dark Knight could have added a lot to his character development.
This is stressful to even look at.
Have mercy! This is one of the most insanely idiotic things we’ve seen at the gym.
How drunk would you have to be to even attempt such a thing? Only this man knows.
Wouldn't that just make things harder?
It’s difficult enough to walk in heels but to lift weight in heels? That’s on a whole other level.
They seem to have everything under control for the most part.
He's not lying!
Pick it up camera man! Quit slacking and move like you’ve got a purpose!
However, it’s important to remember that diabetes is no laughing matter – unless written on a t-shirt.
The perfect gym playlist is essential.
Working out without music is boring and just doesn’t get you motivated enough.
So, what’s going to get you more motivated than a whole band? Nothing.
Some people are never off the clock.
One of the biggest excuses that people have for not exercising is that they just don’t have enough time.
This is called killing two birds with one stone. Work while you work out – it just makes sense.
Safety first!
You know the rules: when you ride a bike, you should always wear a helmet.
Now, we never thought this applied to stationary bikes, but alas, now we know better!
Now that's a dad who knows how to multitask.
Nevertheless, it is truly a frightening image. So, much could go wrong here.
Especially with all the heavy lifting that this baby is clearly doing.
This man really believes your brain is a muscle.
Of course, when they say exercise your brain, they mean to use your brain, not abuse your brain.
But really this is completely unsafe. If the gym staff saw this you might be out of there fast.
Eh, close enough…
These machines are sure complicated enough that it’s easy to end up using them completely incorrectly.
Of course, that’s why most gyms usually offer a one-time personal training session – so you have a chance to learn just how everything is supposed to work.
No excuses!
The elliptical is great exercise, so don’t let something as little as a ceiling get in your way.
Perhaps, next time he should use a gym with higher ceilings.
The soda is crazy, but the hat is unforgivable.
Soda isn’t exactly the best beverage to be rehydrating with as you work our, particularly Cola which has caffeine – effectively dehydrating.
But the real concern is this outrageous hat that looks hot as heck.
We can't get enough of pointless products.
Because holding a regular water bottle was way too difficult, I guess…
Now we need a ridiculous weight-shaped water bottle.
He's defying gravity.
Yeah, we are pretty sure this is not how you use this machine.
In fact, we are willing to bet our life on it, as clearly this man is wrongly betting the other way.
I'm no expert, but that doesn't look right…
We’re pretty sure the body isn’t usually supposed to bend back this way.
We’re sure he’s fine though. Actually, we aren’t but I mean, hopefully…
At least they're not making unrealistic promises.
The gym can’t fix your face but it can help change your body image.
Plus, getting in shape is going to help you feel a lot better about yourself, so the rest will naturally fall into place.
Looks can be deceiving.
At first glance, this looks like a giant tub of whey for you to get your protein fix.
But no, it’s actually something you’d want to consume. It’s cake!
Who needs fancy workout equipment?
There’s nothing sure to impress the ladies at the gym other than lifting a train axle.
What, are you one of those guys lifting dumbbells like a pleb?
That seems safe.
We’re gonna say this doesn’t seem like a good idea at all.
We’re not even exactly sure what’s going on here, but it can’t be good.
Talk about bad timing…
It’s okay, though – it’s hardly the first time someone died at a gym before.
But hey, at least your muscles are looking so good, probably nobody would notice the background if it weren’t for the fact that we pointed it out…
Betrayed by the mirror.
Once again poor attention to detail has ruined a good lie. Had they remembered to photoshop the mirror, he might have pulled it off.
Guess he’ll have to put in some actual work at the gym. A shame, really..
Those darn New Year's resolutions…
By the end of the year, the New Year’s resolution you made to go to the gym is kaput.
Fortunately, there’s always next year to make up for it! No, really, we mean it this time…
#priorities
Actually going to the gym is really half the effort. So, you got to give these boys some props.
Sure, they are just chilling on their phones the whole time, but let’s not be judgemental, shall we?
