Exercise, gymming, physical training and such– are not just about the body but also about the mind. Being physically capable is vital, but so is the mental capacity of understanding the correct technique or one’s own limitations. Recently, the internet was reminded of something similar, after a rather “lesson-learning” video came forward. The clip was a self-recorded video taken in a gym, which showed a man getting ready to bench pressing allegedly “165 Kg”. He also had assistance from a woman, who– after setting up everything– left the frame.Soon, the man began to bench press– only to fail miserably, as he was unable to lift the weights. Rushing to action, the woman from before approached him to spot him, but failed as the weights turned out to be too
heavy for her as well.Luckily, after getting almost choked and crushed, the duo managed to rescue the man at the very last minute, leaving the spotter panicked and the man gasping for air. The video went viral immediately, leaving many reacting. Most called it his “own mistake”, while some suggested “change the spotter”. Many also dubbed it a result of “ego lifting”.Times Now could not confirm the details and the authenticity of the post.Check out the viral post:“A dangerous moment goes viral as man attempts heavy bench press without support,” the post read. The post was shared on Instagram by the handle ‘ohhonoida’. It was shared 1 day ago and pulled many views from people.
