Ruth Bader Ginsburg: America’s Most Notorious Fitness Guru – Above the Law

RBG wants to know, Do you even lift, bro?

As the nations left-leaning citizens pray for 84-year-old Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburgs good health with some begging her to eat more kale and even offering up their blood for use at her disposal in the hope of the two-time cancer survivor outlasting Donald Trumps presidency, the Norotious R.B.G. has some good news for her judicial groupies.

Come the first week of October Term 2017, like exercise gurus of the past, the liberal justice will be the star of her very own fitness book.

Written by her longtime trainer Bryant Johnson and illustrated by Patrick Welsh, the 112-page book will detail Justice Ginsburgs complete workout routine, with easy, how-to instructions. The Associated Press has some details on how the Supreme Court justice started her workout regimen:

Johnson, an Army reservist whose day job is as a court clerk in Washington, has been training Ginsburg since 1999 following her treatment for colorectal cancer. Ginsburg has said husband told her she looked like a survivor of a concentration camp and needed to do something to rebuild her strength.

These days she trains with Johnson twice a week for an hour each time, doing exercises including push-ups and the core-strengthening plank. She does two sets of 10 push-ups, and not the easier ones where the knees touch the ground.

Nothing in the world will make you feel better about yourself than the knowledge that an octogenarian is able to do more push-ups than you. In fact, Justice Ginsburgs workout is so difficult that it nearly broke Politico reporter Ben Schreckinger during his training session with Johnson.

Do you dare to complete the Ruth Bader Ginsburg workout? It is most assuredly not for snowflakes. You can pre-order a copy of the book The RBG Workout: How She Stays Strong and You Can Too! here (affiliate link). Best of luck!
