RSS FeedExercise Man Gets Some Competition!
The PQ Living paparazzi spotted this man doing standing presses with this barbell for 30 minutes one evening on the corner of 7th and G St NW. We also spotted him another day aside a sit up bench on the opposite corner of the intersection. Can we consider this person Exercise Man’s competition? Before you know it, our neighborhood might have its very own Muscle Beach!

This guy, if I may, is a complete jerk, whereas Exercise Man is out to spread joy.
The Meathead has been at Farragut Park for the past 3 years or so, pumping iron, and crunching abs. Mostly in the middle of walkways, blocking traffic. When he’s finished with his reps, he gets up and walks off the burn, scowling and bumping into the path of anyone who might be in his path. Maybe I’ve only seen him on bad days, but this guy is a tool IMO.
The Exercise Man, on the other hand, is out to spread sunshine in the city. He’ll always wave hello to you, say hi, and sing his tunes. Sure, he’ll jump around in a circle in the middle of an intersection, but cars seem to drive around him without much drama.
