Finnegan's Wake

[finnegan]

We could make this a challenge, if anyone is up for it. We can call ourselves...
Bearfuckers.

No wait...

i remember doing some ross challenges and my sledge is 8lbs...that was enough to kill me much less 16lbs...

i think i had a hundred swings in 10 mins

 

[ghostwipe]

Bearfuckers sounds pretty good to me.

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

finnegan your conditioning drills may just be crazier than your zercher deadlift prowess....I am getting light headed just imagining that bear challenge....good shit man..

 

[SteveX]

I have really odd conditioning. I have virually no aerobic conditioning at all. I'm breathing heavy by the time the weights are on the bar. My anaerobic conditioning, on the other hand...

 

[ghostwipe]

That sounds like neat genetics--you were basically built to explode. Resident Forum Berserker.

 

[finnegan]

Well, I know you can't tell from my thin and frail form, but I do have some Norse ancestry.

 

[ghostwipe]

Right on, fellow viking.

[Zerocrew1984]

finny should face your friend kit, bacon.

 

[bacon]

It's Kip, and no he shouldn't. I enjoy Kip's company more when he is breathing, and I'd hate to have to carry his big ass by the handles of a casket.

 

[Zerocrew1984]

can i call him kit anyway?

 

[bacon]

Sure. We always call him "smudge" if you like that better. I have no idea where "smudge" came from, but he's been smudge since grade school.

Hopefully its not in August. I must respect the Carnea.

 

[MatterOverMind]

Hopefully its not in August. I must respect the Carnea.

Ah yes, the celebration of carnies. Definitely a lot of carnivals in August. Step right up and win a prize!

Ever try that thing where you hit the thing with the sledge hammer to see how high you can make it go?
