Kettlebell Socks, Poods, and Swings!

Introduction to our Kettlebell Socks
Now check these bad boys out. We know CrossFit people love stripes, but we know they love Kettlebells more. At the So Cal CrossFit regionals, we saw nothing but Kettlebell, Kettlebell, KETTLEBELLS! Being a major part of the workout, and the equipment seen in the gym, the Kettlebell is intrinsic to the CrossFit culture.

What is a POOD?
I started to research about Kettlebells, and a lot of pictures on Google Images came up with the word "Pood". The first idea popped into my head was being 7 and thinking the word POOED was funny. Pood has nothing to do with fecal matter. Well, as a young person of my generation I always consult the most reliable source, wikipedia, when I need to know something. So here is what Wikipedia says about what a POOD is :

Pood (Russian: пуд, pud), is a unit of mass equal to 40 funt (фунт, Russian pound). It is approximately 16.38 kilograms (36.11 pounds).^[1] It was used in Russia, Belarus andUkraine. Pood was first mentioned in a number of documents of the 12th century.

This is not a Pood

This looks like some good Pooding

Wrapping Up
I understand how this applies to a WOD and I think it's a great exercise. It raises your heartrate, works your core, and trains a lot of muscles within your body. No wonder these CrossFit people are in such impeccable shape.

Preparing for the CrossFit Games 2012- More Kettlebell

We know the CrossFit games are going to be HUGE this year. Last week, the 2011 CrossFit games were on TV, and a lot of my friends were very confused about the whole workout event. I went to the regionals last week, and man was I impressed. But anyways, we asked ourselves, what would be the coolest, most bitchin' retail socks we could create?

"More Kettlebell" CrossFit Socks

We took the inspiration from this SNL clip:

We hope you like the socks and find them comical. Also, we do know that our socks have the best quality, and are the most comfortable socks I've ever worn. 

So we're looking forward to the CrossFit Games and hoping to see everyone compete. We will probably head down there July 13-15 to see everyone from around the world to compete.

I will post videos from the So Cal Regionals soon.

You can always check out our CrossFit socks at Amazon here:

Now these socks were inspired by Roller Derby Girls. With so much to inspire us, we noticed a commonality between CrossFit chicks and Rolly Derby Gals- they're tough. And so are our socks. Don't be afraid to check out our socks on Amazon.

Introducing....Britney the Defeated CrossFitter

 She's Britney. She's that girl who complains too much about working out. She's not very tough. She's the one who cries all the time about being over weight, but doesn't do anything about it. She's the girl on MTV's made, who runs for five minutes and cries. That's who's she's supposed to be. That Girl.
