I honestly didn’t know it was possible for a person to bench press 800 plus pounds. It’s no secret to anyone who knows me that weightlifting is not my thing. Usually, a day filled with lifting weights would be a total nightmare, but not on this day! Eight-time U.S. National Bench Press Team member Brady Stewart hosted us at his beautiful ranch house with his two-car converted garage that was completely designed for lifting weights.
Brady is a professional bench presser—yes, that’s a thing—who has won all kinds of titles and awards. I didn’t know much about this sport, but it’s a fascinating world that Brady has excelled in for over a decade. He was pleasure to hang with, except when he put me through a brutal chest workout. Pretty sure I will never be the same. Muscles and trophies aside, this guy loves Jesus and uses his sport to shine His light to others.
