    Having endured months of intense conditioning, the time came for us to see if our work paid off. It was max-out day for varsity football. But not just any max-out day; it was bench press day. Every coach and player in the weight room knew that I was working toward this record since achieving second place in my freshman year. I did my dynamic warmup and hit a few reps of 300 to prepare. I grabbed my belt and tightened it accordingly; ironically, it grew a conscience of its own and decided not to function. The bar was loaded and I was forced to max-out without the aid of my belt. Nevertheless, I sat down and performed my normal pre-lift rituals. I laid back, and took the bar in my hands. With a deep breath, I un-racked the bar and claimed the strongest bench press in the history of the school. As one can see, I did not simply wake up benching 365 pounds.

    I was sitting on an old wooden bench. It creaked when you sat down on it and it shook, but there was nothing wrong with it. It was discolored from the long, brutal winter we had and it had graffiti on it from the local gang. People never sat on this bench.
