I never went to a gym, but here:
https://strengthlevel.com/strength-standards/bench-press/kg
It says 17 kg is a beginner weight as a woman.
65 lbs, aka 29.5 kg, is almost Novice level, which is probably nothing what one does out of thin air.
Sometimes you do to many reps and your arms just can’t anymore
An empty (olympic) bar is usually 20kg, or 20.4kg/45lbs if you live in poundland. Difficult to lift a lower weight than that if you go the barbell route.
Most girls at my gym lift more than just the empty bar for reps, even if they look new to the movement, so 17kg sounds like an underestimation for 1rm. When I first introduced my sister to the movement, she did 3x12 of an empty bar just fine.
hear her giggling
what the fuck is her problem
Lmao
“run over and bull the lmao 65lbs” What the fuck does this mean
I imagine they mean “pull”? Are they laughing at the weight being low?
Yes. That’s why they are laughing.
I do not believe the story, I think OP is lying
Lying, on the internet?
Why would somebody do that?
