| August 18th was a day that has recently became popular. With the release of the movie 300, many people have became interested in the Spartans, their lifestyle and the Battle of Thermopylae. August 18th was the 2,487 year anniversary of this famous battle. To pay homage to this historic stand by the 300 spartans, me and Cody decided to have a two day bench war. Here is how it went: Day 1 Robbie Bench Press 300 pounds 140 reps Cody Bench Press 150 pounds 300 reps Day 2 Robbie Bench Press 300 pounds 160 reps Cody Bench Press 150 pounds 300 reps Day 3 Like the Spartans, we died! Over the course of 2 days, me and Cody lifted 90,000 pounds on the bench press(the spartans killed approximately 90,000 persians during the first two days of Thermopylae). We plan on doing something similiar to this every year on the anniversary of Thermopylae for as long as our bodies hold up. |
