Embarrassing Powerlifting Stories
Just wondering if you guys had any embarrassing powerlifting stories like me? Here are my 2, be sure to share yours!
Okay, regional powerlifting meet, me and one guy doing the last 2 deadlift of the meet, all the other platforms are shut down. 500 on the bar and I have to pull it (470 was my max). So I get ready get hyped and Pull. I'l about knee height....gotta lock it out...I am concentrating SO hard on trying to pull this thing up and get my shoulders rolled back that I don't even notice I'm falling backwards :rolleyes: ......next thing I knew I'm on the ground with 500lbs on my theighs, looking up at my coach and the other 300 people there....all laughing at me. :blush:
Second. I'm a sophmore in high school, with a 505 squat max, people never believed me and I would always have to throw it on the bar and rep it out once to show them. Well one day the girls basketball team comes in the gym and coach gets to bragging about my squat and tells me to show them...I'm wearing some tight ass jeans but figure "what the heck". So I throw the weight on and get under. About half way down I hear a rip and realize that the entire girls basketball team is getting a glimpse of my ass crack :lol: I'm talking boxers and all ripped. It's a miracle nobody teased me about it after about a week later.
