Karate Dude


Working out at the gym is all about how much weight you can lift, not about the proper form and technique. At least that's what you would observe if you went to my gym. There is this one guy, we call him 'Karate Dude' because he sounds like Mr. Miyagi passing a kidney stone the size of Ralph Macchio with each rep. He does this one exercise where he loads about 8 plates on this machine which is used to work your back_the row machine. Well, you're supposed to sit down while doing this exercise, but he stands up and it looks kind of like he's training for the lawnmower olympics. I think the whole gym turns their heads to look with each grunt. It doesn't matter what exercise he's doing, he goes above and beyond the call of duty. Karate Dude, we salute you.
