Guys. My last post evah to this thread.

At least I'm out here as me. I know that is an ugly hagfish picture and it's out there for the world to see and make fun of why?

Because I goddamn squatted to parallel for the first time since surgery that day. I look like an ugly rat ass man or a washed up sandy scratchy cunt none of you want to fuck while I'm doing it....

Hm.

Bye to the anonymous adonises.

It has become official.

CrossFit and Reebok partner up:

http://www.newarkadvocate.com/article/2 ... 1/10310341

it was announced at the CF Endurance Expo

Plus no more sectionals, just a 6 week online sectional.

Straight from Couch's mouth.

Is there evidence of an agreement or arrangement between CROSSFIT and Reebok? I just see that Reebok hired an individual as a spokesperson.

Good on him. Glad to see someone other than Couch and his minions making a bit of easy money off of this beast.

Its a 10 year deal with CF itself as well, it has been verified and the prize package for the games competitors will be worth a LOT more than 25 Grand.

Wait for it, you will see it being "released" by CF in the coming days/weeks.

@F's sellout is in full effect.

Just wait until there are cardio classes at the globo gyms, replacing "Body Pump" with "@F". It will bring a smile to my face every time I see it.

IMO, once Reebok fully takes over the helm, they will want to franchise it--maybe grandfather in some of the old guys and try to force them into compliance. No more dingy warehouse crap in the bigtime!

Adding some real money to @fit gaymes will bring out the big boyz and girlz. Two sure outcomes:1) No more @fitters on podium and 2)Cheating scandals and drug controversies galore.

The funny thing is that CF thinks this is actually a good idea. "Let's create an incentive for real athletes to show up and prisonsex us at our own fake sport, undermining our 'authority' to decide what constitutes fit in the first place."
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

Don't doubt the sellout.

I took a tour of the Reebok headquarters in Boston today. This is their new CrossFit facility. Very impressive.

You know what would be really funny?

If ACE or NSCA came out with a "Functional Training" certification course. Especially if it happened before @fit got its accreditation.

Graham is sponsored but Mikko isn't. I imagine the Icelander has got to be pissed.

What happens if the gaymes feature no legitimate @ssfitters in the finals? Maybe a team IGx could enter if the money was right. This could be interesting.

A few things could happen.

1. Either CF will become a "legit" sport because of this and get some TV exposure for them
2. Reebok will start to want some control because of the money involved
3. You will see legit athletes compete and mop up
4. Globo gyms will start to affiliate to capture this marketing craze and offer "classes" like they do aerobics

There are more... let's see what CF does with this. Its going to be interesting.
