The One Where Monica Was All About Fitness

Most of us know the cleanliness freak Monica, but there’s a lot more to the ‘hostess’ from F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Here are 9 reasons why she’s set a benchmark in fitness too.

1. Overcame Childhood Obesity:

Thanksgiving 1987 was a turning point for her, when Chandler called her fat, while she had feelings for him.

She lost weight, he lost a toe. So they were even, kind of.

2. Chandler And Monica’s Arm Wrestling Competition:

Look at Chandler’s face … and costume. Enough said.

3. Breaking The Foosball Table:

Tools just slow her down. 

4. Instructor Level : Expert

“One more set and I’ll flash you.”

She’s got the best ways to get you up and exercising.

5. Trading Her Obsession:

“To get rid of one obsession, find a new one.“

Switching from food to cleanliness, Monica totally nails this one.

6. Knew Where To Put Turkeys:

Either in Joey’s stomach, or her head. We’ve seen it from those Thanksgiving episodes we love so much.

7. Living by The Rules:

Her self control was legen … wait for it … dary.
She kept away from the Brown Bird Cookies that made her fat in her childhood and stuck to diet soda. And her rules, well, there’s a reason why her cleanliness and health standards were way above the law.

8. Her Football Skills:

Girl on the bus: my favourite episode is when ross and monica are playing american football for the troll thing

Me: IT’S CALLED THE GELLER CUP OKAY. MONICA JUMPED IN THE LAKE AFTER HER DAD THREW IT THERE CAUSE SHE BROKE ROSS' NOSE. JUST STAHPP.

9. Defended All Body Types:

Even though she looked gorgeous, she still had respect for all body types, being obese for most of her childhood and teenage.

And made Chandler gather some respect too.
