So there I am at the gym on Leg Day... I just finished my last set of squats and I am adjusting the power rack for my stiff-legged deadlifts when I am suddenly approached by another lifter. him: "can you give me a spot?" (no "excuse me" or "please"... of course) me: "Sure." So I head on over... 155lbs on the bar. Doesn't look like he'd need a spot, probably just wants me just in case. "1, 2, 3" *assists lifting bar from rack* *down*, *bounce*, *up*... continue for 8 reps of chest-crushing "bench pressing" I head on over and do my set of stiff deads... he calls me back. 185 on the bar this time. Only this time I'm not so lucky... *down*, *bounce*, *stuck*, *help*... FOR THE LAST 4 REPS!!! I did most of the work for the last 4 reps. He asks me for another spot a few minutes later, this time 205lbs... what is he doing increasing the weight when he can't even finish the previous set? This time he needed my help FOR ALL 8 REPS. I even had a friggin vein popping out of my bicep as if I just did 1,000 dumbbell curls. He came back to me a few minutes later and asked me to spot him again. I looked over and saw 225lbs on the bar and I just told him forget it, you can't do the weight and I don't do biceps until Friday. He actually got mad!!! What an asshole... walked away with a look of disgust on his face and grabbed some other guy who looked like he wanted a bicep workout. So who was spotting who? Was I spotting his bench presses, or was he spotting my barbell curls? Lol... truly sad. -Warik | ||
