Maybe someone could photoshop an @fit t-shit onto a picture of one of those inflatable Snowmen. The roundness should match Couch's gut perfectly.powerlifter54 wrote:Working on the @mas @fit extravaganza...Gary John wrote:Just wondering in you guys do anything special on this thread for the holidays.

We're going to announce a major motion picture, a martial arts extravaganza entitled 'Couching Tiger Hidden Gl@ssman'Gary John wrote:Just wondering in you guys do anything special on this thread for the holidays. Only trying to help for the 100k.
The film begins when the main character G@ S@ leaves his sword 'Pink Member' with a trusted warrior for safe keeping. Unfortunately, it is stolen by the apprentice of an evil warrior woman and the film centers on G@'s attempts to recover it.

Merry Christmas Bichos
@fit wonderland
Bumper plates ring
are you listening
in the gym
The pukey’s glistening
A beautiful sight
we're woozy tonight
training in the @fit wonderland
Gone away is discernment
soon there will be an internment
He designates a workout
the clones scream and shout
training in a @fit wonderland
In the meadow we can see Couch Glassman
Then we’ll pretend that he is not an ass clown
He'll say: Can you pull a 750 DL?
they'll say: No man
Maybe after a year of WOD’s
and your kidneys are on the ground
Later on
they'll conspire
after reading IGx by the fire
To face unafraid

Just looked it up. Rip's rational assessments and tendency to think things through before posting is going to get him in a lot of trouble over there.Shaf wrote:The three squat positions pic is hilarious, especially when Rip says "uh, no" and then caoch starts drunkenly agreeing with rip and saying he's saying the same thing.
Unladen squats...hahhahahahahha.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.
the idea that the third squat is the ultimate position for anything other than an unweighted free squat is ridiculous. They still havent gotten the difference between a straight back and a vertical one. Show me one lifter(other than Dimas or a bodybuilder in smith machine) that squats like that with a bar with real weights on their back or their shoulders.

And the Couch, with his Couch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without chick names. It came without tags. It came without pukey, rhadbo, or sandbags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his ring injury was sore. Then the Couch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Fitness, he thought, doesn't just come from an WOD from an internet store? What if Fitness, perhaps, means a little bit more? -- Dr. S@uss

i can do that with 95lbs rif, and i suspect that is the @fit load range, except the week before a 750 lb dl, then they taper a bit.Rif wrote:the idea that the third squat is the ultimate position for anything other than an unweighted free squat is ridiculous.

Geezus, Jack, if I were a woman I'd marry you for that.

be careful, Mak does need to think about anybody being a woman with the low carb thing going on for him right now...Lemon Magic wrote: Geezus, Jack, if I were a woman I'd marry you for that.
you could end up chained to a washing machine trying to translate the Serbo-croatian word 'in-ya".
Or worse yet find out it isn't a serbo-croatian word at all...

Merry Christmas Bichos...
You're a mean one, Mr. Couch.
You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus,
You're as charming as an eel.
Mr. Couch.
You're a bad mamajama
With a greasy black peel.
You're a huckster, Mr. Couch.
Your theory's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders,
You've got garlic in your soul.
Mr. Couch
I wouldn't touch you, even after climbing a
thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole and running 3 cycles of 500 meter runs alternated with powercleans and iron crosses from the neighborhood kids swingsget while wearing firefighter kit and a WACO SWAT T-shirt.
You're a vile one, Mr. Couch.
You have termites in your smile.
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a rhabdo John Davie.
Mr. Couch.
Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the rhabdoed Renegade!
You're a foul one, Mr. Couch.
You're a pasty, chubby lunk.
Your desk is full of unwashed socks
Your idea is full of gunk.
Mr. Couch
The eight words that best describe you, are as follows, and I quote:
DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO
You're a guru, Mr. Couch.
You're the king of workout blogs.
Your heart's a dead tomato splotched
With moldy purple logs,
Mr. Couch.
Your workout is an apalling excuse to hurl
the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable
rubbish imaginable,
Mangled up in tangled up knots.
You nauseate them, Mr. Couch.
With a pied piper super-naus.
You're a crooked limping jockey
And you drive a crooked hoss.
Mr. Couch.
You're a supersize me pukey and toadstool sandwich
With arsenic sauce!
