Reading funny internet meme accounts between sets

I lift weights, so have natural breaks between sets when I have to rest while my muscles recover. (This would not work for continuous exercise like running.) Those breaks are the perfect time for bite-sized internet-ing, nothing that’ll frustrate you or suck you in so much that you put off the next set for 20 minutes, but just a bit of fun.

Internet meme accounts, the ones with a carousel of 10-20 collected funny bits, are perfect here! Often, laughing at the gym actually has a fake-it-till-you-make-it effect, because now I’m giggling, joyful, and maybe not quite as sullen about having to do another set.

I’ve linked a fave Instagram account (@iamthirtyaf) but @readreceipts is also great for this, or @americanaatbrandmemes for LA-specific humor.
