A List of Good Reads

I sure am having fun writing this blog! To the three or four of you who do read this blog I thank you. All blogs grow. The blogger gets better at putting together actual thoughts and everyone enjoys the experience more. Today I want to give you a list of blogs and books I read. I read a lot of other peoples stuff because some of them are just funny, some of them have good information and sometimes (in case of that fuckhead liberal website moveon.org which I do battle with the leftist side weekly) I am gaining knowledge of my enemy. Liberals piss me off. Without further adieu here is my recommended reading list.

www.jonnorth.blogspot.com

The father of the attitude nation! Only sometimes does he give technical advice on the Olympic Lifts. I watch his technique on YouTube enough as it is. Today he talked about not knowing what a Low Bar Back Squat was! He is fucking hillarious and crazy as shit and I love it!

Epic makes fun of the silly shit exercisers do. He also constantly lambashes RX Star and I love that. He also went to regionals. He is really fast at exercise and fast is cool.

Olympic Weightlifting by Greg Everett

Most of you that read this blog do CrossFit. You would benefit from this book. Greg breaks the lifts and their variations down in simple terms. Also there are great pictures in there for those of you that just plain can't read. Just remember Greg got kicked out of CrossFit by Dave Castro for suggesting to a crowd that Annie Sakamato was doing a clean wrong because of the way CrossFit teaches the shrug. BANISHED!

Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe

Another Guy that got kicked out of CrossFit. (Aren't Rebels cooL?) Another book X-fitters need to read! Mark makes fun of you and helps you in one book! He is a huge proponent of the Low-Bar version on the backsquat. So many ways out there to put a barbell on your back and move up and down with it, eh? Read it, get strong!

Lone Survivor by Marcus Littrell

Ever think that your life sucks? As a Navy SEAL Marcus Littrell was with his four man team on top of a mountain in Afghanistan and fought 150 Talibs and was the only member of his team to survive. I won't spoil the book for you but know that the guy went through real hell. Your 9 - 5 will seem fucking nice after this book.

To Kill a Mocking Bird by Harper Lee

Its a fucking classic. Atticus and his struggle to keep an innocent man alive almost makes my tough ass me cry every time!

www.newsbusters.org

I don't believe the liberal media on anything! Fucking Chris Matthews' heart melts every time he sees the president smile! Ick. I go to www.newsbusters.org for my daily conservative media approach.

www.moveon.org

Perhaps the biggest leftist pile of fucking lies and bullshit ever. My daily dose of conflict if I don't get it on FaceBook. I regularly go to this website and have meaningful debate. I know I've won when they tell me to go back to foxnews! Fuckers. It is owned by George Soros. Do some research on that fucking communist if you are at all interested in the American Flag having a sickle and hammer on it. I'm sure I'll put up some other good reads from time to time but those are my big ones.

Today's workout goes as follows;
Snatch - Heavy Single; 80% x 1 x 5
C&J - Heavy Single; 80% x 1 x 5
Halting Snatch balance - 115lbs x 5 x 5
Halting Jerk - 155 x 5 x 5
Back Squat 2 x 10

  1. Now, having never read any of these and having no intentions of doing so, I am going to haveto take your word for their delight. But I would like to say you have a way with words and all those people should be proud to have you promoting them.
    Love,
