Some say 550 is a way of life.  I don’t trust those people… and I also don’t trust anyone with two first names or, as Coach Bobby Finstock would say, “any woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body”. However, 550 is a way of absolutely crushin’ it when necessary.

550 Easy started with an eye-witness account of some meathead squatting 550 lbs and immediately following that up with writing it on the wall in hand chalk no less than 6 feet tall to express his meatheadedness.   That phrase was hi-jacked and used consistently for well over 10 years now.  Five Fifty Easy!  If something was easy it was 550 and vice versa.  Over time it morphed into just about anything.  And all thanks to that mullet wearing, gym rat who could fill a baby pool with Miller Lo-Life if you tapped his navel.

You just found $20 in your jeans from 3 weeks ago?  Awesome?  Yes.  But also 550.  That smoking hot girl at the end of the bar just gave you her death stare?  Well, that sucks.  But that baboon fart you left for her is definitely 550.  Your hometown team just won after a 28 year drought?  550.  It’s solid, great, super, domination, sick…etc…all rolled up into one.   It’s a response to almost anything which makes zero sense, but somehow works.   If you don’t like it, fine, but that won’t stop us from beating it into the ground.

Like 550 Easy the Arm Crush has been a staple among this group for over a decade now.  If you are looking to crush it one night or every night go with the 550 mindset and everything will be Easy.
