Gyms and how useless they make energy.

I think that it is pointless to go to a gym and lift weights all day all the the energy you are using to push up and down a peice of metal. Why do we honor men who are strong from doing this? I think they should get no honor unless it is muscle built from doing something like building a house or cleaning up after a disater. Maybe even just moving shinggles for a roofing company. Those are the people that deserve awards for their muscle because it has a story to tell.
