The Flame-Free Confession Thread

Front squats are stupid and I’ll never do them again.

(inspired by @guineapig’s thread)

3 sets of 5 during a CrossFit WOD and I’m heading back to the surgeon.

Sounds about right lol. Shoulder?

Every two or three weeks I get my eyebrows snatched off with wax. Quickest thing I can do versus me going hair by hair.

My brows grow in a very wild way, but they’re not thick whatsoever

That’s understandable.

I don’t really need to tan since I’m brown already lol. Although I have tried to in highschool. Nothing really happened except my face getting darker. But if my husband ever wanted to tan I wouldn’t mind. He just burns quickly.

My husband looks like a freaking cave man, and the only reason he shaves is because I ask him to.

Mostly the crotch, chest, and beard areas. He’s got hair down his back that I love, but the rest I ask for him to shave off.

But he figures since he likes me to shave, he shaves too.

White zombie was almost all I listened to for an entire year’s training when I was in grad school. Definitely put me in the zone I needed.

Ahhh White Zombie. I remember going to see them as a young man. We started drinking around 11am. Caught a cab there later that evening. My friend is in the middle of the back seat, he makes some groaning noise. I asked if he’s okay, he says yeah.

Then I see his cheeks blow out, his lips shut tight and a tiny bit a vomit dribbling down his chin. I yell out pull over but he just does a gigantic swallow and back down it goes. He says “it’s okay, I’m good”. Somehow I manage not to vomit at this.

We get to the concert, they come out and nearly explode the roof off the place by playing more human than human right out of the blocks. Rob Zombie looked like an actual demon and is tearing up the stage.

I am just outside the moshpit. Another friend’s girlfriend is a short ass and asks her guy to go up on his shoulders. He says no and dobbs me in, I stupidly do it.

Another two songs and some girl backs out of the moshpit and into me. I think she says sorry but then starts dancing and grinding up against me while I have this other girl, that she must think is my gf, on my shoulders.

She does this for perhaps a minute then walks off. Im thinking wtf just happened. I get the friend’s gf off my shoulders and try hunt down this other girl. No bueno. I end up going nuts releasing some pretty big sexual frustration in the moshpit haha Take a hit to the nads and a headbutt by some pricks. So I said fuck that and went back to the bar for beer instead.

Concert ends, one of our other friends finds us and says he’s found someone who will get us to see white zombie after the concert.

The band come back do their encore. Awesome show.

We head off and I’m thinking that I’m going to meet the band and I will almost definitely bang the bass player (how could she resist :roll_eyes: )

End up getting to this huge apartment block with this tiny apartment where there were just some schmucks from the concert and another 8 of us. Ended up listening to Astro Creep but not too loud, because neighbours, with crappy home brew beer in what had to be the most pathetic after party of all time.

It was the best “worst night” ever haha

Thanks Stu! Surprised at how small the ROM on the rows looks to be there*, but I suppose a small movement that’s 100% targeting the body part you want is vastly superior to a huge ROM that isn’t.

*Of course that could be the angle as well; I’m obviously not ROM-policing you!

I mean he’s only a bodybuilder it’s not like he’s a powerlifter or someone who really knows about getting big and strong.

While we are taking potshots, I can’t get my head around the movement at 0:28. It looks like a pulldown but its a loaded barbell? This is bending my mind haha

He learnt it from a #meatheadmonday video

Lol it’s like I said earlier, if you take your arms out of the movement you end up doing almost a shrug but through a different plane. Try it once and tell me you don’t feel your back muscles working like never before :wink:

Reverse grip military presses… really isolate your front delts like you wouldn’t believe. I used to do them before seated DB presses as a sort of pre-exhaust.

Are those the IG videos where some obese f-cker sees how much meat he can choke down because he honestly and truly thinks if you don’t eat carbs you can’t get fat?

Oh goodness no! I watched my mom do that, and I just went and sat in the car.

I feel like that intense pulling on the skin isn’t the best for a woman’s hooha.

Hip again. I had surgery in December and this was the first time I tried front squats. And the last. Although my shoulder is shot too, but that’s unrelated to my CrossFit Experiment.
