Dying In Your Own Home Isn't Cool!!

The photo above is the bench that my father had bought for the house very long ago. I can't remember when he bought it but it was so long ago that my memory. I started using this thing only not too long ago since I started lifting some weights at the gym

My home's bench

MMU had its mid-term break about 2 weeks ago and I was, as usual, happily having fun at home away from my university. Well, as usual, since I can't have access to any gyms in my hometown, I think it'd be fine for me to use this bench to workout a little bit. I'd typically stay up late until 1am in the morning to workout because that's the time that I feel I can concentrate. The bench is at the back of my home, easily 10 meters away from my family member's rooms (hope it didn't wake them up).

As I was bench pressing (for illustration, refer below) that night, I felt a fatigue that was very intense that I could no longer lift the weights up anymore. The weights almost came crashing down on my chest and almost killed me T.T All my family members were asleep since it's 1am and I had nobody to help me. Fortunately for me, I was able to twist and put the weight on the floor first to stop the weights from falling on my chest. If I had died that night, it'll be totally uncool to not only die in your own home but also die doing bench presses =.='''

Bench press

So, the lesson for the day? DON'T BITE OFF MORE THAN WHAT YOU CAN CHEW!! It's not particularly cool to die that way. Appreciate what you have in your life
