About
The Man Lifting Weights emoji (🏋️♂️) is your go-to symbol for flexing about that gym session or cheering on someone's fitness grind. Whether you're documenting your deadlift PR or ironically reacting to the Herculean effort of opening a pickle jar, this emoji captures that pure determination energy. It's the perfect shorthand for "crushing it" in both literal and metaphorical heavy lifting situations.

This emoji was added in 2017 as part of Unicode 10.0, riding the wave of fitness culture becoming mainstream social media content—perfectly timed for the rise of gym selfies and workout documentation.
One emoji wins every day. Will this one best tell the story of 2/22/26? Get rewarded for guessing right.
