The couch thread

[powerlifter54]

My son Lil'Bingo was rapt throughout.

His Dad was thrilled.

Lil'Bingo?

That kid is either a little league baseball player with a super annoying dad or a Jabba the Hut lookalike Bingo addict.

I'm still trying to figure out what kind of skill work this would be

He seems to have changed. His old photos with her said, "Oh how I wish I could hit it." Now they say, "I hit it."

soon they'll say 'wish i'd never hit that.' herpes is forever, muthafucka!

Those bottom positions in the squat are right out of my old learning progression for the movement. The hands thing, in prayer and I loathe to say it, is part of a simple joke building on the "Goblet Squat."

I apologize for any and all.

Actually I think it might be this...

I bet daffy's breath smelled of gin.

Holy shit! Those fuckers at @fit Shoreline are off their fucking rocker. I love how the Brian dude kept pulling dumbshit out of his ass. And he never would accept the IGX challenge. And every fucking challenge they threw up was some lame ass workout with minimal weight. Wow. I stay away from the @fit sites and I forgot how fucking delusional these people can be.

Who will teach this segment????

Doesn't matter. Odds are whomever they are, they will be excommunicated by this time next month. The tree of crossfit must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots, affiliates, and SMEs.

[Crust Bucket]

I still wanna see someone bust either an elbow or a knee with this shit.

Nice socks!!!!!

Come now Dan, we all know you stole everything you teach straight from @F; Couch himself said you did, so it must be true.

"Black Box Summit 2: Revenge of the Shave" is set and ready to go: http://robbwolf.com/2010/02/01/black-bo ... rt-deux-2/

Can we have a whip round to buy Asstro and Pudding their admission? 'Cos I definitely want to see if there's a rematch.

Also notable is the absence of Thiel and Kepler this time round; scared of a bit of @F smackdown if they associate with the rebels? Or were they just shit presenters at the original summit?

Edit: The official site lists them as speakers; Wolf's blog doesn't. Not sure what's happening, so just in case - fuck Thiel and Kepler!

[KingSchmaltzBagelHour]

No. He is the biggest douche ever. In history. Period.
Any motherfucker who uses the word "rapt" enjoys the receiving end of glory hole action.
Any queer fuck who uses that tired old credit card commercial is an unfunny faggot.
Any parent who takes their kid to a fucking @fit "cert" shuold be brought up on charges. Worse than gay adoption IMO.

[Gas from Cleveland to Columbus...$20
Hotel for two nights...$120
Being there for your son's Level 1 Cert...
PRICELESS!

Many thanks to lead instructor Pat, flowmaster Joe and the rest of the Columbus/Gahanna instruction crew for a fantastic cert. It doesn't matter how much I read, or how many videos I watch, nothing beats being at a Crossfit cert. My son Lil'Bingo was rapt throughout.

His Dad was thrilled.

Is there a bigger douche than Bingo? What is his story? And where is Barry Cooper? Rehab?

And for that you owe us. Why don't you contribute something to the fitness world and stop... oh wait, sorry.

Seems the only person who is cool with the challenge is the trainer, Lauren Plumey:

okay, okay, folks. This blog was intended for a little friendly competition. No need to be nasty. I do not know exactly what IronGarm is, but I do not believe that challenge to be unreasonable for a CrossFitter. The weight for some of the CrossFit qualifiers was 325/225(W) and 1/2 an hour is not that long of a time. I may try it. 185 is certainly not unreasonable for me. I have pulled it in several WODs. BTW..to my non-crossfitters who’ve commented: My max DL is 335, I weigh 125, and my shoulder press is very close to my body weight (I am working on it). My best mile is under 6 minutes. I do not consider myself an atypical CrossFit female; simply, look at the stats from this years CF Games competitors

Not bad. I'd dig a scene between her and Jocelyn Forest playing a game of "pull my pigtails".

If the knee socks, tribal tatts, fake & bake, aggressive logo T-shirt can't get your photo on the main page - then self inflict injuries. You also get the secondary gain of avoiding training for a couple weeks, and frequent recap of why you're wearing mickey mouse's hands.

I've observed this before - it is Munchausen syndrome - a condition in which a person fakes or self-induces an injury or illness for the purpose of being treated like a patient.

a lot of fat haters here. Health and safety regs at work require 2 or more people to lift any load over 25kg, so why would I or anyone else need a 315 lb deadlift? It defies logic. The warriors in the gulf who we stand shoulder to shoulder with each day are way better working on shaving seconds off their Murph time than your pathetic irongarm challenge.

Please enlighten them that the challenge is an IGX original and not from DJ via GJ.

I’m pretty sure the grip junky challenge is courtesy of Dan John via his brother Gary from a T-Muscle article. One strategy would be to pull once every 30 seconds. That isn’t too different from the Games last year. It would certainly build muscular endurance and definitely improve grip strength.

The scientology is incredible with this group.
