    YES!

    x3

    --When you actually squeal with excitement when you wake up to DOMS!
    --When you get into a heated argument about the *best* brand of protein powder.
    --You know what BCAA's are and when to take them.

    You break up with your gym boyfriend for using the ab machines.

    When you actually have a gym boyfriend and a regular boyfriend (and they are not the same person).

    When it takes you 5 minutes to sit on the toilet after leg day.

    When your coworkers come in your office and see beef jerky, greek yogurt, and almonds on your desk at 10 in the morning.

    When your boss ask you why you feel the need to eat chicken and rice everyday

    You know how bad a shaker bottle smells after you forgot to wash it out after your last use.

    You go to work after lifting and can't type correctly because your hands are shaking.

    You can't stop shaking on chest day enough to put on your eye makeup.

    You feel like you've wasted your time if you can sit on the toilet pain free after leg day.

    You feel like you've wasted your time if you're not sore after any day!

    When you realize gyms without squat/power racks shouldn't be considered real gyms.

    You will know that you are a weightlifter and CrossFitter when you keep exercising the power cleans for 30+ reps in a day and you really love to do the Fran, Grace, Isabel, and Elizabeth.

    CrossFit>Weight lifter>Power lifter>Planet Fitness Folks
    Perhaps for you.

    You own a pair of deadlifting socks, or you own the scars from not having a pair.

    They make special SOCKS? Must get. I totally ripped up my shin and knee once on a knurled bar. :(

    you know how to squat , bench press, dead lift , shoulder press and do some bent over barbel row with a good form


    yeah buddy!!! and the fact that you know what each of those are, and what minimum weights you use just off the top of your head.

    Also if you know what brand of protein powder suits you best because you've tried almost ALL of them (chocolate, i have to go with just chocolate and water)
