People rarely think of huge, muscular guys as being funny, but bodybuilder Charles Dorby is shredding this stereotype one joke at a time.\u00a0 And he\u2019s got plenty of bodybuilding jokes in his act too!<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love being a bodybuilder and, more importantly, I love having the big muscles that come along with being a bodybuilder as well.\u00a0 And let\u2019s just be honest; when you\u2019re talking about pure looks, women will take a guy with big muscles over some scrawny, pencil-necked geek any day.\u00a0 Plus having that huge, sculpted look gives bodybuilders so much more confidence in everything they do, and makes other guys think twice about ever messing with them.\"\"<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, being a big bodybuilder isn\u2019t always a good thing since you\u2019ve got to deal with plenty of stereotypes.\u00a0 Before anyone even hears a word out of your mouth you are automatically projected as a total meathead who stops to flex your muscles in every mirror you pass.<\/p>\n

Even worse, some people will think that you have no personality whatsoever, and probably have no sense of humor either.\u00a0 And while we bodybuilders may never overcome the majority of these stereotypes, we may at least be able to overcome the no sense of humor tag thanks to one man...<\/p>\n

Like many of us at Elite Fitness<\/strong><\/a>, Charles Dorby is a fellow bodybuilder, and has competed in numerous shows as well.\u00a0 The 5\u201910\u201d, 220 pound Dorby has become a solid bodybuilder, and has placed in several shows around the Seattle area.\u00a0 But he has yet to achieve the same success nationally at the bigger shows he\u2019s competed in like the USA Championships.\u00a0 Since Dorby has never really dominated his fellow competitors on the national level you may be wondering why the hell I\u2019m talking about him so much.<\/p>\n

Well Charles Dorby has done something really unique in that he\u2019s combined his bodybuilding experiences with his sense of humor to create an interesting comedic act called Muscles of Laughter.\u00a0 In fact, Muscles of Laughter is an unprecedented act to my knowledge since I\u2019ve never heard of a bodybuilding comedian.\u00a0 And the thing is that most people who\u2019ve never seen his act might think Dorby would suck just because he is a huge bodybuilder.\u00a0 However, Dorby\u2019s act is actually really good!<\/p>\n

\"\"Now you won\u2019t see Charles Dorby storming up and down the stage cussing every other word, and talking about the last girl he banged.\u00a0 Dorby\u2019s act is much more low key than that since he talks in a normal voice and doesn\u2019t do any yelling either.\u00a0 Instead, Dorby relies on his original content to carry the act since not too many comedians out there have a bodybuilding background from which they can draw upon.<\/p>\n

Some of my favorite segments of Dorby\u2019s that I\u2019ve seen include his jokes on tanning for bodybuilding as well as the one where everyone wants him to help them move.\u00a0 What\u2019s cool about Muscles of Laughter is that Dorby\u2019s jokes go outside of bodybuilding too so that everyone can enjoy his act.\u00a0 And Dorby\u2019s act has been good enough to land him gigs across the country as he\u2019s done shows from coast to coast which is something that I wouldn\u2019t have expected from a bodybuilding comedian.<\/p>\n

Besides being a funny comedian, Dorby also has a great outlook on life which can best be summed up by one of his messages which reads, \u201cEveryone is looking for the fountain of youth. The answer is simple exercise and laughter. Remember sound mind and body!!!!!!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n

I think that this is a tremendous way to look at life and also believe that Dorby\u2019s positive outlook has helped him to achieve success in both bodybuilding and comedy.\u00a0 Seeing as how Charles Dorby has such a unique act and positive outlook on life, I wouldn\u2019t be too surprised to see him gain more national fame in the future.\u00a0 And to be honest, I\u2019m really rooting for Dorby\u2019s success so he can show that bodybuilders can have a great sense of humor too.<\/p>\n
