Area Woman Adds Social Media Post to Workout Routine

Searching for a way to break through her current workout plateau, Texas A&M University sophomore Marsha Hill decided to incorporate a new lift into her daily workout routine on Tuesday. After an intense warm-up of mirror flexes, Hill induced muscle confusion as she performed a one rep Snapchat post accompanied by a caption reading “It’s a great day for a 6 a.m. workout.”

At 6:52 a.m., weight room employees were seen assembling an experienced team of gym rats to act as spotters in case the social media lift went tragically wrong. Worried for Hill’s safety, Rec Center guest Eric Simmons preemptively contacted the on-site medical team who burst into the weight room with finger splints in hand.

After tightening her weight belt, Hill turned on her favorite Travis Scott song, took a deep breath, and pushed the send button. A roar of applause went up as Hill quietly repocketed her cell phone.

Employees shared their appreciation for Hill’s efforts to maintain a clean lifting space when she used her towel to wipe the remaining sweat from her eyebrow. “Not only did she do an amazing job of remembering to bring a workout towel,” said manager Alyson Griffin, “but she even used it to wipe down the lifting equipment.

To conclude her workout, Hill performed a superset of breathing and drinking at the water fountain before heading to the locker room to shower in social media affirmations.
