a humiliating moment

Tweet

Yes, it finally happened to me. Well, I haven't been to the gym in a while and it's been even longer since I've done any serious weight lifting. I recently decided I wanted to get back into it. So yesterday I head off to the gym. I do my little bit on cardio and make a beeline for the weight room. I decide to start out with the bench press. My first few sets went pretty well so I decided to add on just a little more weight. Not that I was lifting much to begin with. Well I'm on my last rep when I realize I can't get the bar back up. So there I am with it just resting on my chest thinking oh crap. I say out loud, "Can I get some help please?" Sure enough two jocks come to my aid and lift the bar off me. I was so embarrassed I just wanted to leave right then and there and never come back. I somehow managed to make myself stay and finish my work out although I was self-conscious the entire time, thinking everyone was watching me to make sure I didn't get into another mess. I was too embarrassed to even do any heavy weights, but at least I finished. So that was my embarrassing moment of the day.
