Can someone PLEASE tell me how I’m supposed to spot people? I got asked by a stranger to do it today and I’m a fucking social retard so I didn’t want to explain that I don’t know how to spot and I think I messed up because the guy looked pissed at me

>be me, Alex, late night empty gym, pushing heavy bench arms burning, form slipping tall muscular Jace steps up, deep smooth voice
>"need a spot bro?"
>his tank clings to sweaty pecs, tattoos on thick arms he stands close behind, crotch near my head on the fourth rep i stall bad
>his strong hands grab the bar, fingers deliberately stroking my wrists and forearms electric tingles shoot down my spine bar racked, he stays pressed close, letting me feel his growing bulge
>we switch, now i'm spotting him
>every press his tank rides up showing sharp V-line and happy trail
>my hands wrap his thick wrists, thumbs rubbing his pulse slow
>on last rep he slows on purpose, my hard cock brushes back of his head, he sits up quick, grabs my waist and yanks me between his spread thighs
>"wanted this for weeks" he growls
>rough hungry kiss, tongues sliding hot and wet
>his big hand slides under my shirt, pinching my nipple hard
>I moan loud, grinding my throbbing dick against his thigh
>he squeezes my ass possessively, bites my neck leaving a mark
>we rush to empty shower, clothes ripped off
>hot water hits us, he drops to knees and swallows me deep, throat working while staring up, then spins me against tiles, teases my hole with his thick cock, slowly pushes in, stretching me perfect, both moaning
>deep powerful thrusts, skin slapping wet, his hand stroking me fast
>I cum hard first, painting the wall with broken groans
>he buries deep and fills me with hot load, groaning my name
>we stay pressed together under water, him kissing my neck softly
>"best fucking spot ever" he smirks "my place, round two right now?"

you ask them how many reps they're going for and how they want to be spotted
>>
>>77293695
no one needs a spotter
learn to set up safeties and how to bail - it's day 1 shit you are taught in the weightroom
>>
The most a spotter can do is cheer someone to complete all the reps so they don't give up early and not touch the bar or person doing the lift. Unless they ask for something like pulling the last bench rep up like they were doing a special overload rep or whatever.

There are no spotters in bench who catch the bar from falling midair so there should always be safeties. There should be safeties on squat too. In deadlift, squat, and I guess any other movement too, there's this thing where the lifter can pass out from pressure even after completing the reps and the spotter can help so the lifter don't hit their head falling.

>Bench press
As the other guy said, just cheer him on. Unless he says otherwise, don't touch the bar until he fails the rep, i.e. the bar starts moving downward.
>Squat
Either politely decline because you're too retarded or vid related if they do high bar squats https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-4OL1ZZxI5M
I think if they do low bar squats, they probably won't ask, but if they do, you should just tell them to fuck off.

>Spot bench
Balls over face. It's gay, but if you're close enough, you can catch the bar if it starts to fall without screwing up your own back and slow down the momentum of the bar to not instantaneously kill the man.

>Spot OHP
Stand behind him. Close. Gay, but if can't get it up(no homo), you are there to help lower the bar and/or catch him if he falls backward.

>Spot deadlift
Stand behind him. You're there to catch him, not the bar, if he falls. He should drop the bar.

>Spot squat
This takes three people; two on the outside, one from behind. The two guys on the outside catch the bar/weight plates, while you, playing the homo, are behind to help assist with catching the bar and/or him, depending on the context, weight, and situation.

>spot snatch
Surprisingly gay despite the name. Same as deadlift.

>spot bent-over row
Exactly where you would expect it, but somehow makes it even more gay, if possible. Same as deadlift.

>>77293695
Whenever someone asks me I just tell them I have no idea what I am doing even though I do and they teach me step by step that way they assume all responsibility
>>
>>77293695
You dont need to spot anyone unless it's bench, with squat if they're asking you to spot sub4pl8 tell them they're not ready yet. Squat is spotted by two people.
If by spot they mean help me juice a few reps or push the first rep sure why not
