D79: Bench is in session...

Tuesdays and Thursdays at work recently I've been doing short workouts in the weight room with a few co-workers. I don't think anyone has really used the weight room in a long time, but we've made a commitment to do it and we're having fun. Because it's such a tiny gym, about the only think we can do is bench press, inclines, declines, arms, back, shoulders and some ab work. The room isn't much bigger than a closet, but since we've started, a number of curious officemates have come over to watch, participate and just generally be amused. But a few of us are serious and have made bets about who can gain the most strength by summertime. I have to go from doing about 165 in bench press to about 205. The other guys have to do a bit more or a bit less because of their difference in current size and strength. It's been fun so far.
