Today I spent about 30-40 mins doing a bench press workout and these thoughts came back to mind (I think I first posted them a couple of years ago).....
THE BENCH PRESS
High reps, low reps
Fast reps, slow reps
Weights that were heavy
Weights that were light
Some sets were easy
Some were a fight
The bar above me
Loaded with weight
My contracting muscles
In control of my fate
With nothing to lose
And so much to gain
Supine on the bench
The sweat it did rain
The triceps they shook
The pecs they did twitch
That workout was truly
A SON OF A BITCH
A little later I went back out to my gym for a 30 min heavy bag workout.
