The story+

Sisyphus had bad programming: the funny gym joke for the lifter who keeps pushing the same weight up the same hill, printed on a workout tee for men who love a good program.

A hero drawn like a Greek vase painting, in terracotta and black ink, shoves a giant weight plate up a steep hill, under SISYPHUS HAD in bold classical capitals, with a Greek key band and BAD PROGRAMMING below. The dark ink and terracotta read on Natural, Heather Dust, White, Ash and Athletic Heather.

Wear it to the garage gym, the Saturday lift or the group chat that knows your split is a hobby. It is a funny gym t shirt that lands best with people who know their Greek myths or their sets and reps, and an easy gift for the lifter who loves a program. Original art, made for Graphic Tees Co. and printed the day you order it.

Questions+
What is the joke on the Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee?
In Greek myth, Sisyphus is condemned to push a boulder uphill forever, and lifters know that feeling: the same weight, the same hill, no progress. The Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee from Graphic Tees Co. swaps the boulder for a weight plate, so the joke reads at the gym.
How do I wash the Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee?
Turn the Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee inside out and wash it in cold water with similar colors, then tumble dry on low or hang it to dry. Skip bleach and fabric softener, and never iron over the print. Cold washing keeps the terracotta and black ink crisp rep after rep.
How heavy is the Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee?
The Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee from Graphic Tees Co. is a lightweight Bella+Canvas 3001 at 4.2 oz/yd², made of combed, ring-spun cotton, with the heather colors blended with polyester. It is soft and breathable for a workout, and it layers under a hoodie on the walk from the car to the gym.
Will the Sisyphus Had Bad Programming Tee arrive in time for Christmas?
