Gym jokes and puns aren’t for the weak of body or mind. After all, going to the gym takes motivation and determination (and perspiration, amirite?!). Oh, who are we kidding? Jokes about working out are perfect for just about everyone. Because whether you’re a total gym rat or your idea of cardio is shopping, it’s easy to find humor in gym culture. If you like to break a sweat on the regular, you’ve gotta admit these punchlines are spot-on. And if gym-going is new to you, well, cracking a few funnies about exercise could help knock out any nerves.

Although, let’s be real, sometimes the only thing any of us have the energy to do is put on our gym clothes. For those days, a little laughter might take you a long wayon the treadmill! So, with that in mind, here are some of our favorite gym jokes.
