Satire articles are valuable when they highlight a real problem. If they fail to do so, they just sound like complaining. This article falls into that latter category IMO. There are plenty of actual jerks out there, with habits you can write about satirically, but weight lifting? Come on. It just sounds like jealousy of other people who take better care of their own health than the author does his. Also, if I were a co-worker of this author who lifted weights, I would probably feel personally offended, as it implies he had me in mind when writing the article. I did find the standup section funny though.
