Chapter 53: Breaking Record at the gym _2
Following that, the weight of the barbell started to grow continually!
110 kilograms!
120 kilograms!
130 kilograms!
The numbers kept escalating! In just three short minutes, Bright's barbell weight had reached an astonishing 180 kilograms!
Viewing such an absolutely terrifying number! Niamh and the personal trainer, both present at the place, were totally petrified!
Especially the personal trainer, who was even gulping down his saliva. Looking at Niamh, he commented, "Miss Robinson, your friend's physique is... Abnormal! Simply too abnormal!".
Niamh had been so shocked that she was at a loss for words! At that moment, she couldn't help but mumble under her breath.
Her expression was full of astonishment indeed! After all, Bright's performance was simply scandalously jaw dropping!
As for the bystanders, they were all exclaiming in surprise.
"Is this guy a freak?".
"This strength is terrifying, isn't it?".
"He's lifting 180 kilograms but his muscles doesn't look that prominent, do they?".
At that spot, Gary couldn't help but to gasp in astonishment. He said, "This strength is absolutely chilling. He lifts 180 kilograms as if it's nothing".
"Huh? Gary, what's wrong? It's just 180 kilograms after all, isn't it?".
"That's right Gary. Although it's frightening, it's not to the point where you should be so shocked, right?".
"Exactly, this 180 kilograms, you could lift it too, couldn't you, Gary?". The bystanders chipped in.
Upon hearing these words, Gary couldn't help but shake his head. Then, he said slowly. " 180 kilograms, indeed I can do it, but I absolutely cannot do it so easily! Looking at his expression, it's obviously very casual. Clearly, he's far from his limit!".
As his statement fell, everyone took note of Bright's expression. Indeed, Bright's expression was very casual and natural!
It was as though the weight he was lifting wasn't a 180 kilogram barbell, but an 18 kilogram dumbbell! At that moment, many people were emotionally moved.
Gary, who was still standing there, once again spoke, "you keep trying and add some more, start with two hundred!".
Upon hearing these words, the private trainer nodded, then notified Bright and continued to increase the weight!
The weight was increased to two hundred, Bright seemed unperturbed as ever.
Thereafter, the increase in weight continued. After the weight was increased once more, there was a pause in Bright's movement.
Looking at this scene, the onlookers were somewhat flabbergasted. Especially the private trainer who watched Bright and asked, "Mr. John, is something the matter?".
Others were also curious. After all, this had happened all of a sudden. Bright seemed as if he could easily handle it, what was this sudden pause about?
Just when they were puzzled, Bright spoke out. "What's my current weight?".
"260 kilograms". The trainer responded.
"Hmm...". Bright hesitated for a moment, he said. "It's a bit light, can you increase it to 300 kilograms and let's see?".
As his words fell, all the people around were like: ???
In a moment, everyone was struck dumbfounded! Was he even speaking human language? Saying 260 kilograms was a bit light? And he wanted to increase it to 300 kilograms?
This... Everyone's faces were filled with a stupefied expression!
Meanwhile, Gary walked over and asked. "Go up to 300? Mr. John, are you sure about this?".
Because... The weight Bright was currently lifting has already reached 260 kilograms! Even without any equipment, he was performing bench presses. This weight was already quite terrifying!
"Add more, I would like to test and see where my limits are!". Bright calmly stated. After all, he felt utterly at ease right now. And if he can't feel the pressure, then the effects of the Body Boost Elixir would not be activated!
"Alright sir". Gary nodded and then he began to increase the weight!
Soon after, the barbell had reached 300 kilograms! Many people swallowed hard.
However, Bright remained relaxed! Bright furrowed his brows and said, "Add 15 kilograms".
Once these words fell out, they caused everyone around to tremble with fear!
"O~okay...". Even Gary, at this moment, his voice was slightly quivering! Afterwards, with utmost care, they added weight!
As for Niamh who was next to them, she was not very familiar with bench press. Although she knew that this weight was terrifying, she still looked at her personal trainer with confusion and asked, "coach, is this weight terrifying?".
The personal trainer glanced at Niamh and then said, "let me put it this way, based on the latest world record in 2023! The maximum weight for raw bench press can reach up to 337 kilograms, the top five records in the world, it's at 322.5 kilograms!".
"That is to say, if Mr. John increases it to 315 kilograms, he will be approaching the world record!".
The words fell, Niamh was appalled! Next, her look towards Bright becomes more and more complicated!
After increasing to 315 kilograms, Bright raised his eyebrows a bit.
At this weight, Bright vaguely feels that he was about to touch his limit! But there was still room for improvement! "Increase!".
Gary nodded, not daring to hesitate at all. The weight was gradually increasing!
"320 kilograms!".
"321 kilograms!".
The increase continued in increments of five kilograms. The crowd around was somewhat exhilarated! Even some people took out their mobile phones and started to record a video!
The breath of Bright was also becoming rapid!
"336 kilograms!".
"337 kilograms!".
"338 kilograms!".
With the increase to 338 kilograms, for a moment everyone there burst into cheers!
" The world record has been broken! The world record for unequipped bench pressing in has been shattered!".
Just for a moment in time, the gym was boiling with excitement! Beneath all these cheering and bravo. Even the crowd from other workout areas was drawn here!
After all 338 kilograms in bench pressing without help! For most people, this number may mean nothing.
However, for those who were into fitness and bodybuilding. It was almost something to believe in!
At this moment! Gary, though excited, still loudly commanded, "quiet!". He could clearly see! 338 kilograms was not Bright's limit!
The next moment, the weight continued to increase, until it reached 343 kilograms. Only then did the weight stop increasing!
343 kilograms! Bright continued to bench press. However, he could already feel some strain. This was his arm strength limit!
