At what point does dedication cross the line into insanity?
I am on vacation for the next two weeks. I didn't plan to keep my normal 4 day routine, but was planning to use the hotel's junk machine every few days just to "keep the blood pumping". I went in today and found that someone had broken the cables to the bench press, and it was effectively useless. I found that the leg press was still working, and found a way to get into near bench form and bench press on the freaking leg press. Oddly enough, the lever mechanism of the leg press made pushing 60lbs feel about as heavy as benching 185lbs.
TL;DR -- No working bench press, benched on the leg press. Ingenious, or insane?
