Don't bother. Lifting without them would be less hassle anyways.

>>37379720
YOU cant force them to lift unfortunately. Just let them tag along. Lift like you normally do and be happy that you have training partners few times a week with you. Best days to have em are chest and arms day anyways..

>>37379720
Just skype with someone who's lifting.

Unless any of them are strong and motivate you by being better than you, keep in mind that the useless, weak, undisciplined lifter who doesnt know anything about optimizing or the science behind things, only serves as an easy spot.

I've trained for 4 years without a gym partner, they're only gonna hold you back. If you need a spot, ask someone nearby.

What the hell do you need a spot for?

Just bench in a power rack or half-rack that has spotter arms.

Why does everyone on this shitty imageboard need their hand held with everything?

Not all gyms have a power rack...

>>37380188
not even a half rack?

what kind of gym do you goto? Literally find a new one

>>37380092

You don't need a rack to bench either if you just roll of shame it out and and dont suicide grip.

Or don't use clips and ditch the weight if it goes south.

I'm not too bothered about finding a new gym just because it doesn't have a power rack, if I need a spot I'll ask someone to spot me. I'm still dumbbell pressing 130's if there's no power rack or half rack lol.

>roll of shame

have fun doing that with 120kg on your chest lmao

the roll of shame is for dyel's benching 60kg or less

Then don't use clips. If it works for candito it will probably work for you.

>>37380264
LOL

the last time I saw a guy roll of shame a 2 plate bench without clips the right side plates fell off and sent the left side plates flying across the gym

never fucking suggest someone does that.
