Things Not to Do While Lifting Weights

[daedala]

I dyed my hair Sunday, and I was going to just have to sit there for a couple of hours, so I had the bright idea to lift weights with bunch of henna paste and a towel on my head! (I have a lot of hair.)

That worked...better than it had any right to. But it wasn't actually good! And I think part of the reason I bombed the finisher at the end was the unbalanced weight on my head.

Anyway, what's the silliest/stupidest thing you've done during a workout?

It's worse, because then you have to divide by two to get the weight balanced!

This is why there are kettlebells. :)

Forgetting to divide by two is one of the things that frequently leads to "... huh, this seems heavier than I expected." Or, occasionally, to surprise personal records. *g*
