And if you did what class grade/year would it had happened? What decade (if your comfortable sharing)?

I am wondering how many people actually did this and from what locations/ages/years it would have happened. For my education (American elementary-college years 2000’s-2010’s) I never had to do that. I feel like I had to be common enough that it is referenced in movies and tv shows.

No, and I couldn't have if I tried. I've always been bottom heavy: I was a runner and long-distance cyclist with some soccer in there, too. Wide birthing hips but not much in the way of arm and shoulder muscles. That began to change when I started lifting weights in college, but in high school? No way.
