Some people record themselves while exercising so they can check their form. But LEGO builder and TBB-regular Eero Okkonen thinks it’s better to mind meld with your cyber avatar before heading out for a jog instead.

But the normal-size runner is no slouch, employing an interesting technique to sculpt and pose the arms at right angles.
