Favorite Ridiculous Lifting Shirts


Recommended Posts

I spent a few weeks looking for just the right "T-Rex hates pushups" shirt and finally settled on the one from Spreadshirt. I was terribly disappointed. The sizing was all wrong, the color of the shirt was different than it showed online (to the point that you couldn't even see the T Rex or the writing, really), and that shirt and the other ones I bought there all feel like the absolute lowest quality shirt. It made me so, so sad. I ended up giving my T Rex shirt to my sister, who is 5 inches taller and about 45 lbs heavier than I am. I hope you picked a shirt type that works out better for you - I think everything that could have gone wrong with mine definitely did.

This thread is full of all sorts of win!!!! I'm always looking for funny shirts.

I have to give a shameless plug to Donny Shankle and my coach Ben Claridad though, cause this shirt is freaking amazing:

Nope. I'm really happy with the shirt. I got the 'breathable' fabric as that seemed to be the sporty variant and to make sure the rex and text stands out (and myself) i have gone for bright orange.

The only thing that could be a little bit better is if the rex had straight legs (like one usually does pushups) :)

I do all my working out at home now that I'm in the middle of nowhere, but when I used to go to the gym I'd always wear a superhero shirt. I even got a bit too into it, wearing my Superman or Iron Man shirt on days I lifted for chest, triceps and shoulders, Batman or Spider-Man when I lifted for back and legs, and the Flash on cardio days. As an added bonus if it was on a Saturday I'd head over to the comic book store next door to play Marvel Heroic Roleplaying afterwards.

And on that note, I'd love to see a site like ThinkGeek start selling superhero-themed lifting shirts.

In my quest for epic Bro-ness I've been trying to amass a collection of absurd lifting shirts. For now, this mostly means affliction and a few ironic nods from Woot. One of the best I've seen was worn by a Bro in the midst of a ramen eating contest at a local restaurant. The sleeves were torn off (naturally) and it said: This Isn't a Gun Show, It's a Cannon Show. I found myself oddly jealous. Of the shirt, not the ramen.

So.... where do you go for your "Call a Plumber, 'Cause these Pipes are About to Burst!" attire? Any recommendations on where to shop?

before my NF shirt, my favorite shirt to wear was from my college days . It has a dude playing video games on a couch and it says " not now I'm busy". which so personifies how I was before LOL... it's a reminder to me and a bit of irony these days, so I keep it around.

Edit: here I took a pic
