Bad at Math
Tuesday March 27, 2007 // Share on Facebook
I hit the gym today, like every other weekday, and like every Tuesday, started with Chest. When I started a few weeks ago, my flat-bench was a weak 115 – that’s the bar, and 2, 35-lb. weights on. Once I built up my stabilizing muscles, I was able to increase the weight and, last week, I reached 165.
So today, we throw on 2 45-lb plates, and 2-25 lb plates. With the bar, that’s 185 lbs – 15 more than I’ve ever done in my life, and I was able to get 4 reps out in the first set. Let me tell you, it was some heavy weight for me!
When I was done, I asked my trainer why we went from 165 to 185, skipping 175, and he then realized he screwed up the math, and I should’ve only been at 175. Oh well, now I have a new level to lift at! Not bad for someone weighing only 170…
