Wait…that’s my bench and dumbbells
Lifting weights in the great outdoors
We’re all about staying fit as a fiddle. Do whatever it takes to get in kick-ass shape! Fighters Conditioning at Peter Welch’s? Absolutely! Early morning bootcamp with Motivated Fitness? Up and at em! Doing a few quick sets with dumbbells on your workout bench on the corner of L and Sixth? Positively….wait…chest presses and bicep curls in the wild? Well, that might be a tad strange.
It’s not everyday you see someone working out at an intersection so when one resident spotted a bench and dumbbells just sitting at L + Sixth (on trash day), they naturally sent it to Stooping Southie. This instagram page showcases one man’s trash in the hopes it will be another’s treasure. So it was posted. (photo above)
The owner of said bench and dumbbells then shouted, hold on, those are mine, just working on my fitness outside enjoying the unseasonably warm October temps.
Luckily no one pulled up in a pick up truck to take the gym equipment. Stooping Southie updated their post with the following:
