Deshawn Howard prepared himself to back spot the students bench pressing. “Weightlifting is time consuming and sometimes a pain, but when you exercise with your friends and make progress on your bodies together, its a great experience,” Deshawn said.

That’s my ball!

The Frisco High School weightlifting boys take time away from pumping the iron with a fun game of soccer in the indoor in Mid December.

Don’t Give Up

Junior Kyle Angell back spots his teammate while maintaining full concentration in the Frisco High indoor. The weights on the bench press had just been increased to 45 pounds on each side. “Always make sure you keep an eye out for who’s benching and pep talk them,” said Kyle.

Add the Weights

Junior Antonio Cumplido carefully back spots his fellow classmate in the indoor field house weight room in Mid December. Extra weight had been added to the 45 pound bar itself which made the bar even harder to bench. “You’ve got to make sure that the person you are spotting can handle the weight,” said Antonio.

Just Do It

Pump the Iron

Switching up the Weight

In the FHS indoor, freshman Clay Newton changes up the weights for his teammates to bench press. More weight was added to test the weightlifting classes limits. “I like how I’m able to come into the class with no prior weightlifting experiences and I can move at my own pace,” said Clay.

Water is Key

A Break From the Weights
