Getting in Shape for the New Year? Bench Press a Dwarf

Posted by Colleen Kane

 

I will laugh at many an immature gag, but have never found midget- or dwarf- based humor funny. The whole, "ha ha, they're small, you can make them dress like elves and throw them" never did it for me. With that out of the way, I bring you a nutty tale from across the pond involving little and not-so-little people. 

London gym Gymbox at Bank allows patrons to bench-press human weights, ranging from large to, well, little people. Mind you, it's not a gimmick; this method allows the person lifting to visualize the weight. Riiiight. And I'm sure Gymbox' "chav fighting" and "WAG Workouts" (real programs at this gym) aren't gimmicks either.
