Bench Stolen? Do These Instead!
Tomorrow is Monday and in meathead terms, that means it’s bench day. Why? BECAUSE MONDAY IS ALWAYS BENCH DAY.
To prepare you for the onslaught of bros that will be hogging your equipment and most likely talking about their pecs, bis, and tris, I decided to help you with your creativity.

So what are they?
