Help Us Make a T-Shirt Slogan

crossfit-logo

As you know we’re opening a gym pretty soon called “CrossFit Charlottesville.” I won’t tell you too much about it just yet other than it’s going to be awesome.  We’re struggling with a t-shirt slogan and wanted your input.  CrossFit works better than any other fitness program because we do functional movements, constantly vary our movements and do them at high intensity (more on all this later).

As for the slogan, we just want it to be funny and doesn’t have to be specific to CrossFit.

Here’s what we like so far:

  • Specialization is for single-celled organisms.
  • Not just for ninjas.
  • Where dudes love to clean and chicks love the snatch. These are olympic lifts.
  • “I’m not a ***** anymore”
  • The only thing that makes Chuck Norris cry.
  • The only thing better than cold beer.
  • Cure for the Common Workout.

If we pick your slogan, you get a free t-shirt.

      It’s been public knowledge that we’re starting a CrossFit gym for some time. Can you please point us to where we “bashed” ACAC.

      Also, we aren’t a competitor to ACAC. ACAC is a full-service fitness facility with pools, courts, classes, saunas and everything else in between. CrossFit Charlottesville serves an entirely different athlete than those served by ACAC. We do one thing and we do it well; that’s CrossFit.

      The shark is a metaphor for our inner strength, maximized to its true potential through the rigorous crossfit program.

      Nom is a fun word I learned from the internets. It’s funny, and it makes me happy.

      The shark’s teeth symbolize the longevity of the crossfit vision: sharks bodies are made almost entirely of cartilage, therefore, the only parts to survive as fossils are the teeth. The teeth do the nomming, now you DO THE MATH.

      And the ACAC conspiracy? I drew a friggin shark. Use that crazy imagination for good, tastes like chicken, not for weird.
