Gainsdalf the Whey Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 I love putting fitness twists on movie or literature lines. Hell, my handle on here fits the bill on that one. I recently read this article and a line early on in it gave me the idea to put a fitness twist on the oldest meme around (which my high school and college Physics professor claimed to be one of the orginators of), star wars pants. It's easy. Take a famous movie line, and replace one word with a fitness related term to make it funny. If possible, add a screen shot of that part of the movie to clear it up for those who can't remember the true line. Come with me, if you want to lift. I find your lack of squats disturbing. That there’s some squat rack in this world, Mr. Frodo… and it’s worth fighting for. Got it? Go. 3 Quote Massrandir, Barkûn, Swolórin, The Whey Pilgrim 500 / 330 / 625 Challenges: 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 31 32 34 35 36 39 41 42 45 46 47 48 49 Current Challenge "No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training.

Mark D Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Squat rack. Or no squat rack. There is no Smith machine.

Mark D Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 The point is, ladies and gentleman, that strength, for lack of a better word, is good. Strength is right, strength works. Strength clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Strength, in all of its forms; Strength for life, for money, for love, knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And strength, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA. 1 Quote My character: https://www.nerdfitness.com/character/58572/ Current Challenge:http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/83683-mark-d-walks-up-to-a-barbell/ Previous Challenges: 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Link to comment
