Lifter humor

This is from the Q&A section 'Sick of Your Gym' at Elite Fitness Systems. It was posted by a guy named Evan.

I'm doing deadlifts the other day. This jackass comes up and asks me if chalk "really works." I say yes, it helps with grip tremendously, especially since I'm a sweaty bastard and tend to lose my grip.

He gives me a quizzical look and says: "Well, actually I am starting to get callouses on my hands and was wondering if chalk would prevent them. I think I'm going to get some lifting gloves."

It took every ounce of willpower to not slap the shit out of him right then and there.

The state of "manhood" in this country is alarming.
