THE LIST

Obviously these guys are CrossFitters. How can you tell? At least one or more is training without his shirt on.

Time to poke some fun at ourselves.....

Those Silly Things CrossFitters Do: 

1. Wearing Vibram Five Fingers
   
2. Wearing weightlifting shoes during a workout with no weightlifting.
3. Working out with no shirt
4. Working out with no shirt & no shoes
5. Working out with no shirt, no shoes, but wearing a beanie
6. Wearing Lulu Lemon and you also have a penis
7. Acting overdramatic during a workout (really...are you going to die or what?)
8. Filling a bar up to the ends of the collars with 10# bumper plates and then lifting it
9. Having "Your workout is our warm-up" on your t-shirt
10. Referring to yourself as "elite"
11. Matching your workout clothes
12. Talking about CrossFit to people who don't CrossFit at work, during lunch, at dinner, at parties, at the bar, at the club, at church, at weddings, at funerals, etc. 
13. Posting videos of your workout on your personal blog
14. Referring to yourself as a "Koolaid Drinker"

(Okay... I am guilty of #2, #3, #4, #10 and definitely #13....lol!)

Add to the list in comments and let us no what you've done on the list.  

****Note: Relax.... just having a little fun....****

Off the top of my head. Handstand pics from every imaginable place you can think of and Skins

[Eric]

oh and Freddy, you are totally guilty of #11

[John]

Dude, I sometimes feel like I'm a fucking Crossfit evangelist. Out on the streets corner with my sign condemning all those who work out at box gyms, wear workout gloves, use a stairmaster, pay $15K for a trainer, or don't workout, to a life of hell, if they don't come to Jesus and convert to Crossfit.

For the record...I converted two of my last 3 girlfriends to Crossfit. If they could have gotten Fran in under 3 minutes, they probably would have broken up with me.

So, I am definitely guilty of #12. But, seriously, I think the only time it was awkward was when I was berating the corpse for not trying Death by Burpees. As it turns out, he had tried Death by Car Wreck...very different WOD....ummm...just FYI...don't try it. Not as cool as it sounds...

Oh...and the Alex Rule (#6)

[Andy Hung]

Working out with no shirt, no shoes, but wearing a beanie (or shirt sleeve on your head).
I feel that this was a personal attack on me!

[Atsushi]

Repping a Cross Fit shirt behind the bar, having other Cross Fitters recognize it when they order drinks, and not charge them because they Cross Fit. GUILTY!

[Jor]

Lying on the floor in dripping sweat after a WOD and then now NOT lying on the floor in dripping sweat because Mikko Salo doesn't do that.

[freddy c.]

So, #15- Wearing Skins
#16- Taking pictures in a handstand
#17- Erect Recovery (so lame!)

And Eric, yes, I totally am guilty of #11. I think that one is the freddy rule.

[Mike]

LOL, great list. Thankfully, you're not guilty of #6. I would have lost faith.

[marco]

Showing ripped calluses to others or bloody hands on a video.....anyone?

[freddy c.]

#18- proud of torn up hands
And how could I forget #19.....

#19- wearing knee hi socks...all the time. Lol

[nathan m]

I was gonna say the stupid Knee High Socks...but you beat me to it Freddy. Be careful...this might get you de-affiliated. haha

[Team Weak Sauce]

The Knee High Socks are to prevent cuts on the shins while doing rounded back deadlifts...Ok, I was guilt of #19 today!!!

[Kevin Sullivan]

21#(?) Having no hair on your shins from the tape you used to cover them during a DL WOD.

22# Having John Wysong go turrets syndrome on you mid-WOD.

23# Chatting a chick up at the bar about Crossfit, and totally lying about your Fran time...

[Neil]

24# Calling a workout a WOD.

25# Collecting shirts from other boxes that you haven't even worked out in...or even collecting shirts at all.

[Anna]

9, 12 definitely, 14, 18, 7 sometimes (but I'm sure I didn't feel overdramatc at the time), 8 (only when I'm too lazy to put on all the 45# plates). Ha!

[cheryl]

#19 - Knee high socks rock!!! hahaha...ok so I'm definitely guilty of that and #11...

[Frank]

26# Chalking up even when you don't need chalk.
27# Over-taping your hands.
28# Referring to moves in acronyms only: WOD, CF, HSPU, DUs, MUs, etc.

[Frank]

26# Chalking up when you need to catch your breath, not when you need more chalk.
29# Having to use the restroom right before doing a wod.
30# Checking your cf blog more than you check your online bank account.

[Jim G]

"Lying on the floor in dripping sweat after a WOD and then now NOT lying on the floor in dripping sweat because Mikko Salo doesn't do that."

That is PRICELESS!

Good stuff Freddy- refreshing to see a level head within CF.

[Annie]

I AM SO GOOD AT THE FREDDY RULE...

[Edward]

Thanks for the list! I am guilty of a number of the points but certainly number 12. And that's the worst one really.

And also following Mikko Salos example of resting while standing. Seriously, this is the funniest thing ever. "Animals lie down to show that they surrender". Yeah, some animals also eat their own faeces as recreation.
