one rule i always follow with someone regardless....
keep the bar moving. even if its at a snails pace. the amount of trauma you cause to the cross bridges under failure at isometric failure or even eccentric is pretty great. not that i care really, but the main reason i keep the bar moving is psychological. someone sees the bar stop, their head is gone. same with if someone hits the pins on the way up.
i dont care what someone tells me. i keep my hands ready at all times. most of the knuckle heads i have to spot dont have the reserve to yell for help, cant tell where their threshold is or wont recover from the bar stopping.
ive always been told that how i spot was perfect. (humble bowing of head) i just give barely enough to keep the rep going. and i can keep them going for forced reps if thats what we are working for. but usually...thats it! hehe.
