Seated military/overhead press... Easier for a spotter to grab when I fail.
but when u fail a military press, the bar just stops and goes nowhere... its not like u fail fast like in a squat when if u fail u fall to the ground... all u need to do is stop grinding and lower it to your clavicles/delts, then lower it to the ground.

A 15 year old who knows what a clavicle is!

ive got no problem, just seems a bit silly to be honest. Probably cause i see people "spotting" but instead lifting all the weight from them, leaving the person doing the lift with no benefit what so ever.
 
a spotter should only ever touch the bar if u cant lift the weight. and when they touch the bar AT ALL, i would not count that rep, or point out that it had a light spot. (especially with spotters who dont know what they are doing because they will usually take too much weight)

disagreed.

a spotter can touch the bar just to get a few more reps(if wanted i dont mean every workout) (force reps) Im not talking about, "its all you bro."

Also useful if i lose my focus during lift. E.g im doing dumbbell bench, lose my focus weight seems stuck, spotter pushes up a little bit, regain focus, do next rep or two fine without spotter.

BOOM ROASTED

a lot of "hot girls" look worse without doing hair/make up ect.
you dont say -.- lol the reason they are "hot" is because of their slab of make up... and normally its not the girl who's popular, but her vagina.


why is it that every thread i post in goes way off topic:confused:
