Chapter 32 Bench Press 140kg
Chapter 32 Bench Press 140kg
[Bentley Sister: Host, don't push yourself, this is no joke.]
"Don't worry, sis. I've been working out for so long, I know my current strength. 100kg isn't my limit right now, but I won't push myself to my limit. I'll just train a little bit."
As Lin Ye spoke, he sat back down on the stool.
In reality, bench pressing 100kg is already beyond the capabilities of 90% of fitness enthusiasts. This weight is only something that some seasoned fitness enthusiasts can use for sets. In ordinary commercial gyms, you basically won't see anyone able to bench press that heavy.
It can only be said that Lin Ye is too talented in strength. He has only trained for a short time and his strength has increased so much. Of course, this is also due to the support of the system's body recovery potion, which makes his growth rate far exceed that of ordinary people.
Soon, as Lin Ye slightly adjusted his posture, a super standard bench press comparable to the Smith machine appeared. Seeing this, some viewers in the live broadcast room with a fitness background gasped.
Is it possible that Lin Ye is stronger than me?
[Let me tell you something you might not know.]
[Any friends from Jiang Province want to go and snipe Lin Ye right now? Is this for real? A kid, yet he's incredibly strong.]
[Some brothers, yes, I'm in this area. I know this gym, I'm downstairs now.]
[Upstairs, take this seriously.]
...
Because he was still doing bench presses, he didn't see the comments, and he was even less aware that some viewers were already on their way to defeating him. After finishing this set, Lin Ye noticed that not far away, a round-faced boy with a beard, shorts, and white socks was staring at him with an excited expression.
He suddenly thought of the gay legends at the gym.
"No way..."
He immediately became alert.
He deliberately avoided the other person's gaze and tried to avoid making eye contact, but the other person didn't seem to care and came directly in front of Lin Ye.
"Ye Zi, I'm your fan. I saw you were live streaming around here, so I came over."
Hearing what the other person said, Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, but he did not let his guard down at all. After all, this guy's attire was too classic, so Lin Ye had to be on guard.
The viewers in the live stream burst out laughing when they saw this.
【No, this guy is so abstract, hahaha!!!】
Was he doing it on purpose, or was he really serious? Ye Zi's wary little eyes are killing me; it looks like she's about to call the police!
[No, why does Yezi always run into these kinds of people? They're either effeminate young men or gay men.]
...
"Um, well, actually my training is almost over for today, and I'm leaving soon."
"Really? I noticed from the live stream that you just arrived?"
"Well, since we're queuing for food, I thought I'd just show you a little bit."
Lin Ye's forehead was already covered in cold sweat at this moment.
"No way, bro, why are you trying to cling to me? If you keep this up, I'm going to activate my 'Straight Man Defense Manual'—my iron fists aren't to be underestimated!"
Seeing the cold sweat on Lin Ye's forehead, the comments section burst into laughter.
No, look at Yezi's forehead, she's sweating profusely, she looks scared.
[Ye Zi, if you're being kidnapped, just blink.]
If that doesn't work, let's call the police.
Seeing the cold sweat on Lin Ye's forehead, the fans realized something.
"Do you think I'm gay?"
He chose to question them directly.
"Um, well, bro, it's not that I thought it was me, maybe it's just a stereotype, it's just that..."
Seeing Lin Ye's hesitant manner, the fans' faces turned serious.
"Answer me? Yes or no."
"The weather is nice today."
"What's wrong? You're too scared to answer a difficult question?"
Lin Ye's forehead was covered in sweat. After all, if the guy in front of him really wasn't gay, it wasn't good for him to make such malicious assumptions.
[Hahaha, is this the Ministry of Justice? Ye Zi is being tortured live on camera, huh?]
When faced with a difficult question, you fall silent again.
"Haha, okay, Yezi, I'm not kidding anymore. I'm straight. This is a photo of me and my girlfriend."
As the other person spoke, they took out their phone and showed a photo of a young couple.
"This beard is something I was born with; there's nothing I can do about it."
Hearing the other party's explanation, Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
"Uh, sorry about earlier, bro, but your outfit is a bit outrageous."
"Hahaha, I did it on purpose, it felt really fun. By the way, aren't you working out? I'm a little curious, what's your PR score?"
"I don't know either, I've never tested it before."
"Would you like to test it out? I can help you."
"Alright."
Lin Ye thought for a moment, then looked at his phone. He could see that although most of the people in the live stream were just having fun, there were also some fans who expressed their appreciation for his current power.
Lin Ye knew very well that most of these people were men.
It's not that these guys like the same sex, but rather that guys usually admire men who are very capable, just like how people who are good at fitness attract the attention of the same sex.
[Oh my, am I going to see Yezi's PR today? I'm kind of looking forward to it.]
What's this about PR?
Seeing that the viewers in the live stream seemed confused, Lin Ye quickly explained, "Not everyone works out. This PR stands for Personal Record, which is actually a personal record for a single bench press or deadlift."
Only after hearing Lin Ye's explanation did the audience realize what it meant.
Then, they became curious and wanted to see what Lin Ye's current maximum weight was.
Soon, Lin Ye added 10kg of weight plates to each side of the barbell and began to try pushing it.
As a result, I felt a little pressure, but it wasn't a problem; it just came up quickly.
He then increased the weight again.
130kg
140kg
Then came 150kg, and Lin Ye couldn't lift it even halfway through.
"Help me!"
Upon hearing Lin Ye's voice, the fans quickly helped pull him up, and Lin Ye soon pushed him forward.
"Wow, that's amazing, Yezi! You can actually bench press 140kg, that's incredible!!!"
Although he failed to reach 150kg, the live stream is still mostly filled with praise.
Holy crap, 140kg, that's almost three times my weight.
[The leaves are so strong, they must be really powerful when stir-frying.]
[To the lady upstairs, just a heads-up, the leaf is still small, at least three years old.]
[A user, "A Woman Colder Than a Bentley," gifted "Moonlit Waterfall"*1]
[A user, a man even harder to woo than a Lamborghini, gifted "Moonlit Waterfall"*1]
User "Against the Gods" gifted 1 pair of sunglasses.
...
The live stream was once again flooded with gifts, making Lin Ye realize once again that these exciting scenes could indeed ignite the audience's passion.
