cline Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 When you sit at baseball games with your spousal unit and as they flash up the at bat player info you lean over and whisper in his ear "I can soooo deadlift that guy". (true story - do it all the time). Quote I AM going the distance 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

MrHyde Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 When you stop bending over to pick stuff up (or take something out of the fridge) and start squatting instead.When you are at a bookstore browsing books on the floor-level shelves and a store employee offers you a chair and you say no cause you actually prefer to “sit” by squatting down.When one of the first things that crosses your mind when you meet someone new is something a lot like “could deadlift” or “could squat”.
