Fitness songs! (take song, change lyrics)

[Basement Cat]

OK!

 

I had this idea pop into my head today. We stil have New Year's to look forward to, so how about we repurpose some songs to give them a fitness theme? Here's two I got so far:

 

The twelve days of fitness:

On the first day of Fitness, my trainer gave to me:

A barbell to deadlift

2 running shoes

3 jump lunges

4 one arm rows

5 kettle bells

6 box jumps

7 jumping jacks

8 bicep curls

9 bench presses

10 one arm push ups

11 squats

12 yoga poses

 

This one wil only be familiar to French Canadians (C'est dans l'temps du Jour de l'An), but I put a translation below.

 

C’est le temps de s’entrainer (it's time to train)

On transpire c’est dégueulasse (we're sweating, it's disgusting)

C’t’un un effort à donner (it's an effort to make)

Si on veut être en bonne santé! (if we want to be in good health)

 

Préparez-vous mon cher (get ready my dear)

Pour faire le réchaufemment (to do the warm up)

J’vais courir ventre à terre (I'll run like crazy)

Pis faire des étirements (and do some stretches)

 

Commence à l’ver tes fers (start lifting your irons)

Pis à augmenter le poids (and increasing the weight)

C’est pas facile à faire (it's not easy to do)

Mais ça donne des résultats! (but it gives results)

 

Si t’as fini ton tour (if you're done with your set)

Vas t’en sous la douche (go take a shower)

Parce qu’à la fin du jour (because at the end of the day)

Ton odeur est un peu louche! (your smell is a bit dubious)

 

Yeah, that second one is a bit tongue in cheek. You can listen to the original here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4T07_o1Nn8

I should try this, it might help me from getting kid songs stuck in my head while working out. Seriously do you know how annoying it is when you're in the middle of a long run and "Elmo has 4 ducks" starts going through your brain

Hah, fun topic.   Back in June, I was posting on my dear friend Chickie.Monkeys thread.   You see, she had graduated to 'big girl barbells' and it instantly created THIS in my head.  (Sung to I'm a Barbie Girl)

Ok, so this is so wrong, but a song just came into my head....

 

~I'm a barbell giiiirl, in a barbell worrlld...  

Life's so greaaat when you're lifting weights!

You can see my abs, and I know they're pretty fab.

Motivation, being fit is your creation.

Come on barbell, lets go hard now. 

OooOOooo, OoooOOOooo!~

 

(I totally blame this on you guys talking about big girl barbells.  LOL.)

 

[starpuck]

That was much the same reaction the other thread had!  ^.^

[WeldingMommy]

Great now that song is in my head...

 

How about this one?

 

My-a plates, my-a bar, my-a next PR

My-a plates, my-a bar, my-a next PR

My-a plates, my-a bar, my-a next PR

My-a plates, my-a bar, my-a next PR

 

 

Watch your form now Numa numa yay numa numa yay numa numa numa yay

Keep your back straight or it's gonna break, and your bar is on your face.

Cleans, jerks, snatches,bench press and deadlifts, bench press and deadlifts, bench press and deadliffts

I like bacon and so you should too, bacon is so goood!!

 

 

Lawdy I'm bored!

[Basement Cat]

Noooooo! Not Numa Numa!

 

Here, have "It's a small world"! Mwuahahaha!

 

It’s a land of fitness, a land of peers

It’s a land of hopes, its a land of cheers

There’s so much that we share

That its time we declare

 

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

Its a ner-dy place!

[The Beard]

To the tune of "Fireflies"

 

You would not believe your eyes

If ten million nerdy guys

Picked up some weights and took a leap

'Cause they'd lift beyond compare

And leave sweat drops everywhere

They eat good food

That make some just stand and stare

 

I'd like to make my friends believe

That paleo fills wholly

It's hard to say that I'd rather lay a-bed when I can keep

My muscle strength as good as iron beams

With Nerd Fitness!

[WeldingMommy]

Noooooo! Not Numa Numa!

 

Here, have "It's a small world"! Mwuahahaha!

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

It’s Nerd Fitness, that is all

Its a ner-dy place!

 

I sang that in my head like Zazu from the Lion King

 

In the style of Bette Middler "Wind beneath my wings"

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

I used to be weak, but now I'm stronger

lifting has done this just for me.

I was content to just lose weight, that' was my way.

Only I can push me high.

So I am the one who's always sweating,

while you are the one who adds the plates .

A protein shake with lots of whey and some fruit.

A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know I hate my sneakers,

and everything I just can't PR?

I can lift more than my neighbor,

'cause I am always eating clean.

[WeldingMommy]

My Deadlifts bring all the boys to the yard and they're like, What's your PR?

And I'm like, look at my bar,

Lala-la-la-la Warming up

Lala-la-la-la In yoga pants

[WeldingMommy]

I'm dreaming of a fit body

Just like the one I never had

Where my sweat,it glistens

While I sit here and listen

To hear gym rats come and go

 

I'm dreaming of a fit body,

With every rep that I can count,

Breaking old PRs

With weights that bend the bars

While watching, improper forms
