Why it worked
The video likely worked due to its relatable and humorous take on gym expectations versus reality, using a common exercise (bicep curls) and then subverting it with a different movement (lateral raises) to create a comedic effect.
Summary
The video shows a woman in a gym performing dumbbell exercises. Initially, text suggests she is doing "10kg bicep curls??", but she then performs lateral raises with the same weight, indicating "nah.".
