Bench Press Fail

It has been a long time since this has happened!

I was lifting in one of the quiet college gyms where I teach (it's often DEAD in there), and I loaded up the bench a bit. I started with sets of 8x135 lbs, and then upped it to 155 lbs near the end after a few sets.

Well, I THOUGHT I could get one more rep... but I couldn't. I had to roll the bar down my chest and pick it up off my lap. I hope the security guard watching from the camera in the ceiling had a chuckle.

Below is not some sort of "sexy abs" shot as I don't care for my abs, but it's just me showing my red belly after rolling a bar with 155 lbs on it off my body so I wasn't trapped under it:

Oops. Oh well.
