Today, I was at a power lifting meet when a girl I really liked walked in. Trying to impress her, I increased my bench to 350, when I have only done 300 before. She then watched me drop it on my chest, breaking my breast bone, and also crying in the process. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was working out at the gym. A very attractive girl was watching me work out, so feeling like a stud, I tried to lift a really heavy weight. I failed, got trapped, and watched helplessly as she walked away laughing. FML
Today, I was finishing my chest workout at the gym when this really cute girl started using the machine next to me. To impress her, I tried lifting a lot of weight on the barbell. It ended up landing on my neck and she had to help me get it off. FML
Today, while working out in the gym, I spotted a very attractive girl. I decided to pick up the heaviest dumbbell to show off how much I could curl. She ended up driving me to the hospital because I burst into tears after tearing up my bicep and deltoid. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. As I tried to bench press, my arms gave out instantly, and I ended up dropping the bar onto my chest. The dudes in the gym around me gave me the wide-eyed WTF face, while I tried to laugh it off and failed. FML
Today, at the gym I loaded way too much weight on the bench press. Halfway through my set, I got stuck with the bar on my chest, squealing like a squeezed rubber duck until a stranger rescued me. FML
Today, I was at the gym trying to impress a hot girl, so I put an extra 30 pounds on the bar, I lowered, pushed... and pooped. FML
Today, I was at the gym with my friends when they invited me to do a few bench presses. Since I'd never done any before, I decided to start with no weights on the bar and work my way up from there. I wound up pinned beneath the bar, calling for my friend to come free me. FML
Today, my doctor told me that I have severely and permanently injured my shoulder. Last week, I attempted to lift more weight than I normally do in an effort to impress my boyfriend. He was not impressed. In fact he said that most kids can lift more than that. FML
Today, while trying to lift a weight bar at the gym, I ended up cracking my rib cage and almost passed out. My friend, who was supposed to be spotting for me, couldn't help until the last second because he'd snuck off to flirt with a pair of guys halfway across the room. FML
Today, I was working out at the gym doing squats. There was a girl there that I wanted to impress so I loaded up the bar with a lot of weight and began to do my squat. As I was going down I farted so loud that I began to laugh and fell backwards. Everyone in the room just stared at me. FML

YDI for thinking that doing something so stupid and reckless would gain a girl's attention. If she can't like you the way you just the way you are she's not worth it.

tell her, "what you don't understand is, I’d catch a grenade for ya. Throw my hand on a blade for ya. I’d jump in front of a train for ya. You know I'd do anything for ya. I'd brake my breast bone trying to impress ya cause 300 just wouldn't be enough. Oh Oh "

I thought it was creative and really a fight over the Internet that's very intimidating.

I agree, my husband was a football center in high school on a championship team and still holds the bench press record at his high school...he is all natural and does not look unusually huge or bulky. No one would ever look at him and think he can bench 450. Anyone who's arm wrestled him knows differently though ;-P. But its just something he worked for and is built for. He does 350 regularly now. Also, people that don't lift like for actual lifting contests or sporting purposes don't seem to understand that there is a BIG difference between benching for a workout or bulking up over time versus MAXING OUT...like one time rep or two with as much weight as you can stand (with spotters of course). So good job, ignore the haters and good luck with your football dreams.

dude, 300 is enough lol still impressive, I can't get 300 yet..besides I don't think girls pay much attention to the actual amount, they just see the "big plates" (45 pounders) and go "oooooh ur strong" lol
