I went to XSport Fitness on Tuesday night for a workout. I accomplished exactly what I set out to get done. I warmed up with a 1 mile run. Next I went to the free weights and did barbell bench presses, lat pulldowns and seated behind the neck military presses. Then I wrapped up the workout with a 2 mile run on the treadmill.
My highpoint of the workout was during my bench presses. I worked my way up to 245 lbs. I got a spot from one of the young guys working out nearby. I was able to get 8 reps without any help from my spotter. Afterwards the young kid said "Dude, you're pretty strong."
I came home and told my wife. I narrated the progression of weights and the spot I got and the statement the young kid made. Without so much as a moment of reflection my wife said "He meant strong for an old guy." Doh!
