Was with my friend today, doing a leg workout, and first up was some squats. 3X3.
My friend is slightly stronger then me at lower body, but I have always been able to do the weight he puts on.
Well, anyways, second set, 295lbs, my form was a little off. I went down, didn't keep my head up, and promptly went head first down only the saftey blocks they had just for people like me.
The whole gym, which was my school gym so the baseball team was in their lifting, kind of stops and looks at me and my friend. Then a coach approaches me as everyone continues to lift:
"You OK son?"
"Yea, I am fine, my form was off and at least now I know where my max is at"
"Alright, but I am going to put some spotters with you"
Oi, that stunk. I put on a weight belt, move up to 315 (3 45's on each side) and pumped out 3 more reps with my friend helping me along with another baseball player as I really made sure my form was good. It was faaar to much weight for me to do effectivly; the coach mentioned I would have gotten a better workout with a lower weight. I agree with him.
As my friend put it:
"It was kind fo slow motion; you went to push up, and doubled over and kind of went blaaah *Does hand motion for me falling over*"
Lets hear some of your embarressing stories.
