Example of bench press in a Sentence
It’s another Monday and, as you can see, every barbell bench press station here is occupied. That being so, do you mind if I work in with you? Sure, I could just wait patiently, go elsewhere and do another exercise, or do the unthinkable and switch my training schedule so I hit chest on a day when everyone on the planet isn’t doing chest, but I’d much rather impose myself on you. Now, before you tell me to go fuck myself like you definitely should, remember this is the barbell bench press. So yeah, even though I have nowhere near the same strength levels as you, I’m absolutely going to use the same weight you’re using. That means me working in with you won’t be an inconvenience because of the added work of loading and unloading weight every set. Nah, it’ll only be an inconvenience because of my added presence. Oh, it’s still go fuck myself?! Well then, I bid you good day, sir!
