“Hey, is that where they filmed Terminator 2?”
AC made a pretty sweet video montage of footage from his trip out here in December. That trip also coincided with Mike Hom visiting Wichita Falls, so we were one big happy family. In this video you will see different types of lifters with different training goals.

Edit: I guess I’m okay with me sitting on the toilet as the video’s preview image…
Stay warm and train hard — tomorrow is PR Friday.

I’ve never met Sage Burgener, but we have some mutual friends. Apparently she’s a cool gal, a weightlifter, a coach, and has a funky little blog where she reveals tips that she has picked up from her pops, Mike Burgener. More importantly, she likes the 70’s Big t-shirt.
AC pulls a mean sumo deadlift
Love the “Do Epic Shit” shirt.
comedy!
oh and the sage pic is pretty hot.
Damn! Young Frankenstein is a strong dude!
Great video!
Sumo deadlift was the best part.
@Anchor, dude, just so you know, I think Sage is only 16 or so. Just a heads up.
Nah, I think she”s like 19 from a quick search of the CF boards. Still a baby, but at least it”s not quite as dirty to comment on the pic and think she”s cute.
funny shit guys, loved the part where you were training with a broomstick like the oly-lifters ahaha
thanks for making me jealous about the fact your gym atmosphere infinitely trumps mine.
also, where can i find some knee-high socks to dead lift with? all i can find are crew socks. i tried sweatpants but i just get way too hot.

Cool Video, Good call on the Kid Cudi.
AC seems like he””d be absolutely hilarious to train with.
Chris is better.
–Justin
awesome vid guys, makes me wanna move to Texas :)
well that settles it… i have to make a pilgrimage to WFAC.
However old she is, if she”s no younger than half your age plus 7… and Casey Burgener doesn”t see fit to bury you under a stack of plates… then you should consider introducting yourself in a gentlemanly fashion. ;)
Love the PETA sticker, haha.

Also, American Apparel stores have a wide variety of tall, striped, tube socks…if you can stand to deal with the hipster staff lording their 1980”s grade-school teacher fashion ideals over you.
Alright fuckers if you can get me a place to live and a job that will pay for that plus food I will move there next week! Not Joking!
I’m not doing anything for you.
–Justin
That was Oscar-worthy.
thanks steelo – there”s one just off campus. i”ll check it out this weekend.
Good times.
@jesco, thanks for the heads up, man. 19 is too young for me, but she is a cutie..
While she is cute, keep talk about her civil. Or I will get angry.
–Justin
Uncle Buck, if you haven”t been into an American Apparel before, please video your reactions. Also, I”ve decided I”m more jealous of AC”s video production skillz than anything, trust me.
is american apparel like american eagle or something? would be tough to handle that level of douchebaggery..
LOL, just go into one and find out. I don”t personally care, because I like their t-shirts, too (cheaper on Amazon, and made in the good ol” USA), but I”ve had friends walk in and go into catatonic shock.
@jacob, lol ok man, i”ll check it when i get the chance.
@justin, absolutely. raised by a single mom and have 3 sisters. i don”t disrespect the ladies.
Dude I was bitting into my hoagie when he was on the shitter, it reminded me to take my fiber today.
Justin,
Can you give us a little more detail on the women””s capri pants you are wearing while spotting the squat?

I have to wear pants when I rack pull. Those pants were sent to me for free by VS Athletics last year. They used to fit me when I weighed 30 pounds less. I am cheap and will not go purchase a pair of athletic pants to rack pull in twice a month, so I just wear those. While I look ridiculous, I do not give a fuck what I look like while wearing them. The end.
–Justin
Socks are cheaper at skatersocks.
Is AC doing the Hansel move from Zoolander…trying to pull his underwear out of his pants?
Started my BBing split today. Its pretty fresh. WFAC seems like the best place to train due to humor and Rip that seems to coexist there. This Sage chick is pretty cute.
^^Coexist? Rip manages and/or owns the place.
Rugby socks work well, too.
That”s an awesome film
@Spencer-
after following your link, you picked the wrong place to link your blog…
be gentle guys.
@WannaB
What do you mean be gentle? I”m pretty confident all of us here have said “I just really needed to let lose and drink some organic solstices” before.
Besides, Spence has read every issue of Men”s Health since 2003, so he knows about doing the weights.
which remix of day and night is the background music?
Side note….this guy might be crazy
http://chaosandpain.blogspot.com/
but he is hella intense and strong as all get out.
After reexamining the blog, I retract my previous statement. Hilarious, dude. Touche. You had me going there for a bit.
Yeah pretty sure that”s a joke, since it look scientifically calculated to piss off anyone interested in strength training.
Best quote:
“I suggest that you go somewhere with all of the weights you will be using in your workout, that way you can do your entire biceps workout without interruption and without wasting time walking around to different places in the gym. I personally choose the squat station.”
You guys are real dense. I deleted the linked blog and some responses for obvious reasons, but I hope you sharpened your awareness skills.
Do not feed the trolls.
haha, my bad, i saw the post about manly celebrities and had to comment… i guess i was had.
Good lifts today. My hams and adductors are sore from Tuesday”s squat so I think I am doing something right by keeping them engaged.
Ordered some weightlifting shoes today. It is a shame they are back ordered for 2-3 weeks.
does rip play in a jazz band or something?
Brass band in a Christmas performance.
–Justin
Attempted BB training today with a friend…Yeah, not for me. Im not a fan of eatin oats. more mixing them with shit to get 70s big. Gonna get that 160 @ 5 x 3 tomorrow!
Justin was not making fun of Oly Lifters. He was re-enacting a lift done by the huge guy in an old video he posted.
Song
Kid Cudi vs Crookers: Day”N Nite
Justin, my phone is dead and the hotel computer won”t let me get on FB. Technically WE never trained together, so you cant say Chris is better. BTW you are my Best friend.
Are there any hotels near WFAC? Along with a place that sells milk, food and other necessities? And maybe a car rental too?
Do you have Google capability?
–Justin
I remember seeing a vid of Sage WL”ing. I would kill to have technique, and a coach like her”s.
The video from WFAC is priceless
Everyone here better have at least flipped over to WSM ”09 while watching the national championship game, or vice versa I suppose. Talk about some 70 s Big dudes.
Yeh so, am I the only one that thinks that one dude looks like Young Frankenstein?
If you haven”t seen it, I feel for you like Angelina feels for exotic babies.
