Re: The couch thread
Who would have guessed that @fitters eating their own on the gaymes page and FB could nearly put this thread out of business?

Re: The couch thread
The best April Fool's jokes are ones that you could actually believe happening.Incoherent man apparently talking about CrossFit workout
by Andre Sieg Heil, Aspen Daily News Staff Writer
Monday, April 1, 2013
In what first appeared to be a stroke or a psychotic break, local man Dave Cocket was apparently talking about his morning CrossFit workout within earshot of everyone at Peachy’s Corner Cafe earlier today.
Several witnesses reported Cocket proudly stringing words and numbers together in a chronology that defied logic and grammar, after ordering his quinoa breakfast bowl and coconut water.
“In the box I did 220 on 13 point 2,” Cocket reportedly told anyone who would listen. “That’s seven plus 10 with 115 and 24 inches.”
Standersby asked him if he was all right, offering to call an ambulance.
“The wod was cray and I pee-beed on amraps, dudes,” he responded to the horror of many. “Double unders and tabatas and emoms and burpees, bro, woot!”
A crowd of concerned diners circled around Cocket, attempting to assist him, but the attention seemed only to increase the intensity of his nonsensical monologue and chest-pounding.
“Totally RX’d when Billy scaled on muscle-ups,” he barked into his Bluetooth, watching himself in the reflection of the cafe window.
“Are you OK, sir?” his concerned waitress asked, right before her announcement that she is running for mayor of Aspen.
He appeared to snap out of his mumbling stupor, but then responded, “Ya, I’m paleo.”
First responders and well-known douche bags on the scene diagnosed him as a CrossFitter and spoke to him in his native tongue. They administered several daps and props to Cocket before leaving the coffee shop.
Sources from Facebook told the Daily Planet that Cocket had also taken to posting unfunny memes and videos about CrossFit in recent weeks, along with endorsing Adam Frisch for mayor.

Re: The couch thread
The newest outrage i see in points east is the @fitter crowd slithering out of their backroom @fit box and out onto the gym floor where they now take up the power racks doing sumo high pulls and burpees with a pullup. Eurotrash are even doing it and they are really pathetic. i believe this can only lead to this war being lost.

Saw an advertisement for a local @F affiliate in a liquor store today. Didn't have any andro broads in it. The locals around here are either on the golf course and/or drunk as fuck all the time, or Mexicans and negroids. Not a great target market for several hundred dollars a month to blow a disc in your back.

Welbourn, like Wolf and Everett, and a few others, are upright folks, and whom have my respect for being knowledgable and effective, even of I might not agree with everything, on the big stuff, it's all good.

Christmas Abbott was on The Jason Ellis Show yesterday. Seems pretty cool for a @fitter. At least until she started wailing on about @fit but she wasn't too bad about it.
Re: The couch thread

Re: The couch thread
I worked out in a college gym yesterday. It was squat day and had the pleasure of working in with 3 crossfitters. I think I hurt them when the squats got over 225. I tried to explain PL54s fun with quarters method but they couldnt go up 50. I was alone for the last hour, it was nice. They went on to powercleans sort of.

She was on Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel last night. I didn't watch it, but I will try to catch the replay. I know her briefly from some clinics I did down her way. She was very cool and open when I met her, and definitely interested in talking about herself and how awesome she is. When she stopped being the center of attention, though, she turned bitchy real quick. Then she apologized and explained that's how she is.Mickey O'neil wrote:Christmas Abbott was on The Jason Ellis Show yesterday. Seems pretty cool for a @fitter.

I've never met Xmiss A but you can assess her for at least two personality disorders at a glance. If the genesis of someone's fame is @fit, be wary. This includes the Wolfs and Everetts who have been ejected from the hive.

I'm starting to think Olympic lifters have been doing the split stance wrong all along and it is actually done by putting your feet out to the side. I understand sometimes shit form happens, I just can't understand posting up videos and pictures of it everywhere.
