Why it worked

The video likely resonated due to its relatable humor, the unique and unexpected premise of a gym simulating pregnancy, and the strong sense of community displayed. The visual gag of people working out with large weights strapped to their bellies is inherently engaging and shareable.

The creator, who is pregnant, has her gym members strap medicine balls to their stomachs to simulate the experience of working out while pregnant. The video captures the members participating in various exercises with the added weight, highlighting the fun and community aspect of the gym.

POV: your entire CrossFit gym decides to be pregnant with you 😂 14 or 20lbs strapped to their bellies... So everyone could do the workout "pregnant" 🤰😂 Me with the real thing 🤰 I don't think we could've found a better community. 🥺🤍

Original caption

Apparently being pregnant at CrossFit is contagious. 😂🤰 Our gym decided that if I have to work out with a belly, everyone should know what it feels like too. So they strapped 14-20lb medicine balls to their stomachs and did the workout right alongside me — squats, lunges and all. 😂 Obviously, a medicine ball isn’t quite the same as being 35 weeks pregnant… but watching everyone try was VERY entertaining. And underneath all the fun, this meant so much to us. We moved to Tahoe and had to build a new community from scratch. Somehow, we ended up finding people who would literally strap 20 pounds to their stomachs just to experience this moment with us. That’s pretty special. 🥹 Baby girl isn’t even here yet, and she’s already surrounded by one incredible community. 🤍 #crossfitcommunity #crossfit #pregoworkout
