As I predicted, Tuesday’s “Sexy Women Flipping Tires” gallery — as dumb as it was — wound up generating way more pageviews than anything else we posted this week, which means that these Fitness Motivation photo galleries are here to stay. You only have yourselves to blame.
Today’s gallery was inspired by MMA fighter Felice Herrig, and focuses on sexy women swinging ropes (aka battle ropes, combat ropes). Check out the photos below, and if you have any suggestions for the next Fitness Motivation gallery, drop ’em in the comments. At this point, “sexy women doing squats” is a strong front-runner.

I’ve become fascinated by the so-called “fitness motivation” Internet trend. Basically, these are photos of hard-bodied men and women working out — usually accompanied by inspirational quotes — with the apparent goal of motivating you to get off your computer/smartphone and get to the gym. I’m sure you have at least one annoying crossfitter friend who posts this kind of crap to tell the world that OMG they’re training for life you guys. But honestly, fitness motivation photos are just another Internet fetish, like feet, or whispering. What is this photo inspiring you to do, exactly?
So earlier today, right before the Chael news broke and I was looking for something to do, I decided to search Pinterest and Google for fitness motivation photos, and see if I could spot any trends. The first one that stuck out is that healthy women love to flip tires. Tire-flipping is a metaphor, actually. If you can flip a tire, you can flip anything. So here are some photos I found of sexy women flipping tires, as promised. Check ’em out in the gallery after the jump, and stay tuned for more fitness motivation photo galleries, whether you like it or not.
I hope that “girls flipping tires” is an untapped Internet sub-fetish. I hope that thousands of people are searching for it daily. I hope…

Are you a fat, nerdy MMA fan who lives with his mother and spends his time trolling the Internet? Well, obviously not, so you’ll have to play along here. But if you were overweight, and also decided that the whole “eating healthier and exercising” thing didn’t involve enough former UFC champions for your liking, then would I have a treat for you. Tim Sylvia has founded The Maine-Iac 90 Day Weight Loss Challenge, so that you can get in shape with the former UFC champion.
So what is inspiring Tim Sylvia to challenge his loyal fans? Is he trying to persuade people that fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son? Is he concerned about the rising obesity rates in our children? Believe it or not, it appears he’s doing this due to his own weight issues. I know, I can’t think of a single mean-spirited, sarcastic comment to make here, either, so let’s hear it from the former champion himself:

Well as most of you know, I am in my late 30?s and getting towards the end of my fighting career and I have noticed that it is getting harder and harder to maintain my weight. I received a short notice on a fight opportunity and weighed 330 lbs. at the time. To be in ultimate fighting shape – I needed to be 265 lbs! I only had 5 weeks to drop so a friend of mine turned me onto the Body by Vi Challenge. Within 3 weeks I lost 35 lbs but I had to bust by butt to get there!!! With that being said I was so surprised at how easy this diet was and how great the shakes tastes. Needless to say I am a believer and happy to share this with all my friends and fans. Join me in this journey to a better lifestyle. So please if you’re interested in a better way of life and just want to feel better – Join Me Today in the Body by Vi 90 day Challenge!
I know what you’re thinking: How can a guy with such an intense workout routine balloon up to 330 pounds? The answer, of course, is a lack of $249 Transformation Kit -proudly labeled “Tim’s Kit” – in his diet. Said kit contains some protein powder, a multivitamin, some flavor packets, and a whole lot of snake oil scientific weight loss stuff.
As Fightlinker pointed out, Sylvia’s challenge is really just an affiliate thing of the Body by Vi Challenge, meaning that Tim makes money off of everyone who buys something from his site. Eh, we’ve seen worse attempts at paying bills from former MMA fighters. Much worse. So how about picking up some protein powder from a former champion?

One way or another, we all want Georges St. Pierre‘s body. (*cough*) So it was just a matter of time until GSP recognized the opportunity and put together his own home workout DVD series with trainer Erik Owings — conveniently released in December to hook as many pudgy New Year’s resolution-makers as possible.
But St. Pierre’s new RUSHFIT series is no Situation-style cash-in. The eight-week, 45-minute-per-day program focuses on high-intensity circuit training, with a nutritional component to go along with the workouts. In other words, it actually looks like it would produce results, assuming you have the motivation to stick with it. (Full disclosure: You don’t.) And all you need is a couple of dumb-bells and your own ever-increasing bodyweight.
You can order the RUSHFIT DVD set at gsprushfit.com for $60-$70. After the jump: A couple more preview clips, and some crucial information from the website’s FAQ…
