I don't go to the gym because I'm lazy but for others, the prospect of working out in public can be pretty intimidating.
After all, we've seen story after story in which people get humiliated or end up in weird confrontations just because their fellow gym-goers couldn't mind their own business.
But when one woman went viral for contributing to this problem in a TikTok, a bodybuilder saw fit to not only defend what the unwitting star of her video was doing but call her out for making it.
And since his technique seemed unusual to her, she pointed him out and said, "What do you think he's doing? What do you think he's working? I don't know either."
As we can see, one of the hashtags she used suggested that whatever he was doing, it couldn't be anywhere near the right way to do it.
He quickly explained that the man was doing drag curls to work his biceps.
He added that this motion of moving his elbows back and dragging up along his body was taking stress off his deltoid so that it all went to the biceps.
As Swoll put it, "It may look a little strange, a little awkward, but it is a great movement."
But while Swoll defended the man's technique and educated his followers on what exactly this person was doing, that wasn't the main point he wanted to get across with this response.
He added that he always finds it bewildering and disappointing when people film strangers at the gym to try and make fun of them.
And that's why he closed his video by saying, "Be better than that."
