A Tulsi Gabbard fan asked if she could beat Biden in a push-up contest. She took on the guy in the crowd instead.

The candidate’s spontaneous fitness test should come as little surprise. Gabbard, who has not qualified for the past two debates, has made no secret of her rigorous workout regimen. Throughout the 2020 campaign, her active lifestyle has almost become a campaign ad in itself. She has surfed with her fans (in frigid New Hampshire waters). She has done CrossFit training with her supporters. And, early the morning of the first debate, she held a “team boot camp” for her campaign staffers in 90-degree Miami heat.

 

The videos are all over social media. The martial-arts-loving Army National Guard major has posted footage of herself doing burpees, squats, yoga, many activities with dumbbells and, yes, push-ups — in one case to the tune of AC/DC’s “Back in Black” for dramatic effect. She practices jujitsu, taekwondo, tai chi and Filipino stick fighting. And on Capitol Hill, she trains under the auspices of Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), a former mixed-martial-arts fighter who leads an intimidating bipartisan workout group, Roll Call has reported.

 

“Those days when you don’t feel like exercising and tell yourself you’re too tired or don’t have time — just do it,” Gabbard wrote in a #MondayMotivation message on Twitter in November — a message likely to have pleased Nike. “You’ll be glad you did.”
