Tough Mudder and Spartan Race....extreme!!
« on: June 22, 2015, 09:30:19 PM »
I caught an extreme sport documentary CNBC yesterday and thought it was most amusing to put these activities up there with BASE jumping and proximity flying...haha. Fucking media.
These goofy mud races are for corporate bores who want to get "extreme" on the weekends.  New age hipsters.  You want a tough workout...I got one for you, it's called the Croatchathon.  You workout for 20 years, then blast posers from the gym on getbig, and in the end not one shit was given...haha
It's actually called the Croatch 6000.  It's where you lift solid weight for 6000 days.  Oh...you did the p90x for 3 month...bravo fuckbag...bravo.  I always marvel at these weekend marathoners.  They lose 5lbs of fat and people want to build them a statue.

They probably juice too. I can't believe you didn't mention that. You've gotten soft after 20 years.

I watched it yesterday, too. Jumping over the fire at the end was way too extreme for TV. Had some good ass shots of the women going over the wall but other than that, I saw a bunch of fatties struggling and acting like they accomplished summiting Everest (oh brother)

The fire jump is so lame.  You don't even have to break stride or even jump.

Other obstacles are an absolute bitch.

A few months ago i honestly saw a middle aged beanpole with glasses, putting petrol in his car, wearing a vest (in Scotland) and sporting a large tough mudder tattoo on his shoulder  ;D ;D

and?

The Mud Day Métropole Nice – French Riviera Saturday, June 21 in the Alpes-Maritimes, finished … in water coil. Mud Day – obstacle course that includes an immersion in mud – was the starting point of a mysterious and violent outbreak of gastroenteritis.

some competitor has had to take a dump into the mud, that"s the only way possible. oh wait, that's why it's called "mud"  :-X :-X

it's hardly a worthy enough achievement to want to have it inked onto your arm for the rest of your life, and wear a vest in cold weather just to show off, is it?

Maybe it is to him.

I don't enjoy it because I did some actual "tough mudder courses" when I was in the USMC.
It wasn't FUN and you didn't have babes doing it alongside you.
FYI, the work out conditions are a tad different and the idea is to prepare for war, NOT fat loss.

To me, those gym trainer " boot camps" seem pretty silly.
I often think, " Hmmm, you want a real boot camp experience? Enlist in the USMC and head to Paris Island for 13 weeks.  ;)"

Yeah, all they do it get you in great shape.  Better to do reverse laterals on a machine.

well i find that cringe worthy, so i'm free to mock him for it. It would be pretty garish to go to great lengths to boast about something you had done, even if it was extremely hard, which tough mudder isn't.

It's not easy, especially if it's a mountain course.

And, there's so many stupid fucking tattoos  in the world as is, so this is no different.  For all you know, he's one of the founders of the events, which rakes in 200 million plus per year.

Dumbest argument ever.

There's a big difference between utilizing military practices to better yourself, and committing your life to the military.

Now log off and go hit some brutal tricep kickbacks and pec-deck flies.....

Howard, if I was going to be rolling around in the mud in any obstacle course, it would definitely NOT be with you. You're creepy. You'd try to grab me inappropriately or something.  :-\ :-\

So, the argument between Captain Freedom and Grape Ape is:

CF: "The guy is a dork."
GA: "That's his right."
CF: "Its also my right to say hes a dork."

Congrats, you both have just experienced the first Amendment.  :D :D

Yes, CF and I were able to guide the discussion to an agreeable outcome.

This is only the second  time in getbig history that this has happened.

You have the tattoo, don't you?

I was creeped out by the dude staring at me and my vest as I was simply trying to put petrol in my car.

These races are for people who want to pretend for the weekend they are in the military. I will run a road race but I don't see the point of getting filthy with mud then rinsing off with a hose to sit in you car for the ride home leaving your seats filthy.

I do have to laugh at bodybuilders making fun of a real athletic event though.

No they are not.

They are for people who want to either have fun or challenge themselves.
