 Sailors aboard USS John C. Stennis had the opportunity to participate in a bench press competition that was held in the hangar bedding. The competition was sponsored by the Stennis Chapter of the Coalition of Sailors Against Destructive Decisions, the Ships of Float Fitness Director, and Stennis Morale Welfare and Recreation. The bench competition was great today. It's not too often that we get to go and have powerlifting competitions. Great to give everybody around. Increase the morale and see what your competition is. Train a little bit harder in the gym. The competition was divided up into male and female categories. It was an awesome competition. There wasn't very many ladies that were actually competing, but the turnout was awesome. So I encourage everybody to come out for the next round. From USS John C. Stennis, I'm Petty Officer Fred M. Gray IV.
