He's worried you'll crush yourself, skelly. He doesn't want to be blamed for your death
>>36150325
>ohp in the squat rack
Where the heck else are they gonna do it?
>>36150565
..outside of the squat rack? anywhere?
you're not telling me you can't clean into a proper OHP position
>>36150565

>tfw someone starts curling your barbell in the middle of your power clean
>>36150565
Most normie gyms have a seated military press rack, I just use the rack part and load it there and do it standing.
>>36150432
Literally the worst when you ask a random to spot you and they curl the bar for you.
Mad props to the black men who yell Ronnie Coleman like slogans at you to lift more.
>>36150432
I had a spotter who just kept hover handing the fucking bar. None of my reps were even grinders but he just kept doing it. Pissed me off.
>That gay cunt that comes and bends in front of you pretending he is looking for a dumbbell while you're grunting like an animal and miring your pump
>Those fucking kids on their first month in the gym who discuss broscience they will never apply because they will quit in a week
>That literal retard staring at you while you do some uncommon exercise like you're Ronnie Coleman
>That absolute noob using more weight than he can handle just because he saw you doing it with good form
Can't help but slam the weights like some roidfreak who I see most of them and make sure I give them the deathstare
>>36150595
I started power cleaning the weight for OHP to avoid waiting on the Squat rack. So far I can clean more than I can press. I added power cleans back into my program for this reason.
>>36150745
Nice blog.
>>36150732
This is why I left commercial fitness centers. Find an independent gym brah. Made lifting so much more fun for me
>>36150482
"hey bro, I was just using that". Problem solved.
>That fucking shitbird who keeps walking around the gym not working out asking people supplements they take.
We here to socialize? Also, what is it with wiggers and doing this?
>that guy that yawns between sets
>>36150482
>that guy who drinks water between sets
anyone who does something slightly different to the way i do or do not do it
>>36150921
I do this and it for some reason helps me not puke. If my wind pipe gets dry and I'm lifting a lot of weight I'm going to barf.
>>36150947
>that guy that doesn't greentext
>>36150432
Back when I first started lifting, my spotter (best friend) would stand there and text. Guy who worked at the gym yelled at him for it one day
>>36150917
>that guy who can only ohp 1pl8

Lots of reasons to yawn other than bein sleepy. I yawn between sets sometimes. It just happens.
>>36150779
Worthless poster
>>36150432
I do this. I don't assist with the lift (unless needed on the last rep), but you'll thank me for having my hands in position if you drop the bar.
Fuck you for asking someone to spot and then criticizing them for doing a thorough job. Again, I do not actually assist with the lift until i'm needed.
>>36151011
Ironic shitposting is still shitposting.
>>36151230
Unless they're going for a one rep max, don't do it. It's annoying and can fuck up their form.
>>36151329
>its annoying
Then ask a moron to spot you. If im putting myself out there as a spotter im not going to do a half-assed job just because youre an autist.
>>36150565
Don't fall for the b8, squat rack is an acceptable place for OHP, this is a stale meme that someone is trying to bring back
>>36151364
Did you miss the part about fucking up form? Don't get mad because you're a shit spot.
People that grab a weight you know they cant handle, they attempt and fail a rep, then sheepishly put it back
>>36150432
>>36150674
>>36151017
What's the correct way to spot people I don't know?
>>36150998
Ok?
You seem like a newbie still, so i'll throw ya a bone... The spotter is supposed to aid with the lift off (usually) and be ready to help only ever touching the bar if it's either going downwards or if it's a real grind.
Otherwise you can't call it your lift, because it's hard to gauge how much the spotter has helped.
If this hurt your pride then get over yourself and get educated on basic things like spotting.
>>36150432
>when you are benching alone and some self proclaimed superhero RUNS to spot you even if you are not even close to failing
Th-thanks for ruining my set, bro.
>when your cat wants to eat your quark and drink your proton shake
gains goblin or potential gymbro?
>>36151888
Lift off, let them guide the bar to where they want it, let go, and just watch them lift. If the rep is a grinder place your hands near the bar but not on it. I don't grab the bar until I see it start going down and even then just pinkies can help them push through and finish out strong.
>that skinny asian girl that complains to her gay twink workout partner about how loud the gym is
>>36150302
OP here.
No, when someone steps over my barbell it's a sign of sexual aggression, so I bend over and just let them plow my ass to avoid confrontation.
>>36150824
Is it cheaper?
>>36154344
It's 45$ a month but there's less shit people and more equipment. They just brought in a safety squat bar too. It's pretty great
>>36150432
always a pleasure when some curlbro asks me to spot and expects me to curl half of his weight like his retarded buddys do.
like they dont even know what a real set feels like.
