Games Workshop: ‘Warhammer Workout’ April Fools Gag
*Checks calendar* Oh…that explains that. Video games Workshop has a brand new train device that uh…nicely, it’s April Fools, so…yeah.
The parents at GW are having some enjoyable immediately and it’s all about entering into House Marine form with a “new” piece of exercise tools. Introducing…the “warhammer” for exercises:
through Warhammer Neighborhood
The Health Warhammer
“Crush your reps like Aeldari skulls with the Mark-19 Emperor-class Primarch Health Warhammer – a part of our new Adeptus Exercisus program. Many long-time Warhammer followers keep in mind their first features from shifting stable steel Dreadnoughts across the desk, and this new innovation in private health is step one in the direction of replicating these legendary feats of energy and endurance.
The Health Warhammer is ergonomically designed so you’ll be able to smash your train targets all day lengthy, similar to the Captain that you’re inside. Simply carry, swing, and obtain greatness.”
When you can’t inform it is a gag then verify the “warning” on the finish of the video:
“Hammer comes unpainted and requires meeting. We suggest utilizing Citadel Colour paints. Don’t use as a hammer. Don’t take to battle. Don’t use earlier than crossing the Rubicon Primaris. Could trigger extreme accidents if used incorrectly. Could trigger extreme accidents if used accurately. Could summon Ynnead. Could summon any mixture of the Chaos Gods. Could trigger a second Nice Rift. Could trigger muscle tissue to turn out to be too massive. Don’t use on dying worlds. Don’t go away in daylight, moonlight, or rain. Don’t lend to an Ork. Solely for use in shut fight: -1 to hit modifiers apply. Not a toy.”
So sure, fairly the contradiction of warnings there. In anycase swinging a sledgehammer can truly be a reasonably good exercise — if achieved safely and accurately! Additionally, a number of the workout routines proven off within the video aren’t horrible both. However there are in all probability more practical choices on the market. However that actually all will depend on your health objectives and what you’re trying to do.
In all seriousness, I might be curious as to what an precise House Marine exercise would entail. We do know their day by day rituals with “Battle Apply” at 0700 and 1500 (which final for five hours every) in addition to “Night time Firing Workout routines” at 2130. I’m positive they get a lot of cardio on account of their two hearts, too. Moreover, I’m positive there’s a good mixture of weapons coaching and martial arts coaching in there which is a complete OTHER kind of exercise apart from energy and health coaching.
