"I don't think it's too high. I would be surprised if it was even 315, honestly," says Oberst.
The guys discuss that since they don't have bench presses in Planet Fitness, they'll have to use a Smith machine instead.
The guys plan to beat 315 pounds "in the warmup", and plan to set a heaviest bench press record.

"Let's get to work," says Shaw, with the guys changing into Planet Fitness "Be Free" shirts to put in the work.
They warm up on the Smith machine, quickly adding on weight. And Oberst snacks on pizza as Shaw finishes up a set.
"Where the hell did you get a pizza from?" says Shaw.
"I'm a new member!" says Oberst, mouth full of cheesy goodness.
"So because it's my second time here I don't get one?" says Shaw.

"Yeah, I'm better than you. When I'm done, if there's any left, I'll let you look at it," says Oberst.
Then, the guys get back to training.
"It's weird doing it on a Smith machine, honestly," says Oberst.
"It's also weird trying not to be too loud," laughs Shaw. "Cuz normally I would be going nuts!"
Oberst taps out at five plates on each side, while Shaw pushes it with six plates for 560 pounds.

"Eat your pizza, and let me go to work," says Shaw to Oberst.
He knocks out the rep, and the guys discuss the record.
"If anybody else has done more than that at a Planet Fitness, show us," says Oberst. "We need a plaque and a pizza."
Workout complete, they talk about how they plan to recover.
"I've heard that in this place they have some kind of hydro massage bed or chair or something?" says Shaw.

"Like an enema?" jokes Oberst.
After a massage (and more pizza) the guys leave the gym, with Oberst saying, "According to Planet Fitness statistics now, you have the biggest bench and I'm the prettiest that's ever been in there."
