Is there a swole-shelter near you? Pack your iron and leave tonight, brother.

thermobollocks

We need no shelter but the Iron Temple.

btmims

Instructions unclear, now living in the gym snuck a cot into the gym.

90guys

Sleep on the benches, with plates as your pillows

btmims

I tried that, I have grown too large to sleep on the benches... My lats hang off like wings, the slightest relaxation (such as when gains occur) will cause me to lose my balance.

But I will throw out my pillow, thank you for the suggestion.

I've never heard of a swole shelter, only cardio bunny hutches.

Lift your boxes in sets of 5

moves out in sets of 5x5

roarkish

In this situation, I think it appropriate to test 1RM and cut your losses.

ModernViking

It may be a new exercise, gotta ensure form is good

TwerkmansComp

I flexed my abdominals heartily for 5 sets of 5.

I read this with the comment above as two connected comments that rhymed in song. I am saddened it was not intentional. But I liked it.

Jay_is_Das_Stig

Brethren I was terrified!

RockDaHouse690

Hire a gym, hit the gym, delete not having gains.

ShitLordStu

High rep with no regard to form will carry over to the bedroom. Glad you made the right choice.

[deleted]

Isn't high rep good tho? Maybe op can fool her into doing extra abdominal cardio

CatLions

the cult of loki aka crossfit has taken another soul, tis sad they only want to be swole thyselves but have been lead astray...

Viking_RnP

Packs your bags heavily. So that ye may farmers walk them to your new village.

GEN_GOTHMOG

My heart giveth weighted palpitations for 5x5, thanks for the workout brother 10/10.

Am I the only worshipper before the Iron Altar who had a positive experience with Crossfit?

I first learned my prayers in The Box. Not all have strayed. Only a fool can deny that the ways of The Box are easily twisted to heresy and blasphemy, but none of its central tenets are fundamentally abhorrent to Brodin, providing that one holds him in one's heart during worship.

Yea, I say unto you that the practitioners of Crossfit's highest competitive rites return to the bosom of Brodin, seeking greater perfection and purity of the Upward Worship. For the judging of the rites is heavily biased unto the Lifts, and those who are found wanting in their Worship are simply not competitive.

Nevertheless, you are not wholly wrong; the heretics amid the congregation of The Box are legion. If a given temple to Crossfit has regularly sent a team of worshipers (a rotating team, not one or two individual penitents) to the national-level competitive rites on a regular basis for several years AND has a shrine to the Lifts of Olympus (an Oly Lifting club registered with USA Weightlifting), that temple is almost certainly safe for those who worship before the Iron Altar. But it must have BOTH.

If the temple lacks either, yea, it is a den of iniquity.

Wheymen brother. May Brodin's holy light guide you to further fortunes

radio_room

I know this sub generally hates crossfit. But what about people who do strictly Olympic weightlifting.

youknow99

Powerlifters are our brothers and sisters. Olympic lifters are our cousins that we see on major holidays.

merijnv

Olympic lifters, unlike crossfitters, care about lifting form, just different exercises and focus from powerlifters.

glottony

You have my couch! And my axe!

adamtheatlian

How did you let this happen?

Mornar

Leaving now saves yourself, brother. However, staying against all odds, lifting you weights as Brodin teaches, and showing the difference in gainz to the heathen to lead them to the light of the Swolefather, therein lies the real glory.

peteyyytran

Don't

She'll probably help you move in explosive and random movements.

Brethren, I fear that Brodin has sent this weighty joke hurtling past thy head at a high rate of speed.

3_M4N

Indeed. It appears this joke may have exceeded their one rep max.

fistisalsoanadverb

Sounds like this form of cardiovascular activity I keep hearing, but would never touch.

TeenFitnessss

Don't mention that word here !

I had to pray to brodin in sets of 5x5 after I read that blasphemy

Dat username tho.

"ZERO!" :(.

politicalGuitarist

Crossfit is a cult for narcissists. Stay away, unless you crave attention and poor work out regimens.

WookieNerfherder

True she hath strayed. This sin is nearly unforgivable, but not without hope. Help her become a true swolemaiden brother, Brodin will bless you with gains for doing so.

BlackmetalStrength

You should pack your bags for time.

March1392

Is she vegan?

[deleted]

There are some pretty fuckin hot crossfit girls. I wouldn't be that freaked out. Though I'd be worried about the dudes there trying to hit on your girl.

[deleted]

Brother, what tongue be this that you speak?

Brother, what tongue be this that thou speaketh?

Crossfit is a great substitute if your form is correct!

KyBourbon

Shoo shoo gainz goblin.

Goblin in the username even. Loki isn't sending his best agents today.

M.A.S.A.

flibbidygibbit

95lb snatches for a bizarre rep/set scheme of 21/15/9 reps "for time" will not be done with good form.

gzk

Donuts are great post-workout nutrition if they are made from and take the form of whey protein isolate shakes.

TessHKM

Actually donuts are just great post-workout snacks straight up.
