Seriously if some fag touched me when I was squatting it would throw me off totally. If i miss it I will sink back down to the bars in the power rack.

With anything over 200lbs 'hooking' will twist the bar and probaly make the person twist with 200+ lbs on their backl. not safe.

wait a min..is this the same guy who was spotting kevin earlier..by putting his foot just beside kevins feet and with the risk of tripping him? and then almost pushing his knee into kevins butt or legs...and then finally grabbing the bar when kevin is racking the weight, risking to throw kevin off balance and/or twisting his back??

this guy is showing dangerous technique to newbies who may be watching that and trust kevin..

lol you can see in his eyes the guy got hurt by the comments of so many people on youtube saying how gay and retarded he looks when "spotting"..

god he makes an even biger insecure fool  of himself in this new vid more than anything.

He spilled so much nonsensical bullshits just in 4 minutes it's unbelieavable. Pelvis here, pelvis there... Just another big talker trying to make himself look a lot more knowledgeable than he really is in the eyes of newbies . they re the only target he 's going to impress with his garbage.

Epic being dwarfed by some random gym member walking in the background at the end of the vid.

He 's the perfect match for levrone. Both uter liars and bullshiters trying to make a buck out of ignorant newbies.

Yes, it's one of those new fads. There's no way I could wear a hat to work out. I'm burning up as it is during a workout.....you should see the tools wearing beanies (in the gym), even during the summer months.  ::) I guess it helps when you just sit around and just watch other work out, though.

Use a power rack, no need for spotters.

Never heard a term "forced reps"? Power rack doesn't do that for you, you need a spotter. You would know that, if you have some training experience, but you have not.

As they say, no pain, no gain...life is for learning etc. Forced reps are good way to build muscle, so why don't use them with major exercises? And that video-clip show you a proper way to do it, it just looks silly because it is hard to keep your balance with those small weights.

It look too gay for you homophobic teenagers. Like any other american getbig-brat, you are scared shitless if you have to go in to situation where another man touch you. I pity you poor fools, you don't have a clue how to handle your life with all these fears. Stop crying and realize that if someone ask you to spot his squat, it doesn't necessary mean that you have to stick your cock in his anus. Perhaps he want you to do it, but in the real life it is quite rare in the gym.

Forced reps for squats is unsafe. There are far safer ways of overloading then forced reps.

Thats depending on the reps. 6 reps failure(heavy) with forced reps are dangerous.
But 15-20reps failure with forced reps are not dangerous.

I guess for you a weight you can rep out for 15-20 isn't "heavy". If the spotter is doing most of the work what is the point? How much of the lift are you really performing? Like I said there are much more effective methods of overload and they are safer as well.

Exactly, 15-20reps range is actualy medium or light. I dont use forced reps for helping lifting but i use forced reps for breaking the limit and getting the ultimate burn.

It depends at couple of points. First, if you are teenage- wannabe bodybuilder doing a set with too much weight and piece of shit range of motion, you should not use forced reps. Secondly, if you have difficulties to accomplish something so easy than forced squat, you should find another hobby, you are not a bodybuilder. Plain and simple, they are not unsafe if you know what you are doing and you have some history in the sport. If you are newbie without any intelligence, everything would be too dangerous to you.

1. No
2. I'm not a bodybuilder. Maybe forced squats are easy because you're only doing half the work if that. If you can explain how doing forced reps would be more beneficial then using chains or weight releasers I'm all ears. Maybe you can convert
me.
3. Bodybuilding is not a sport. Once you've reached the failure point and you are no longer able to complete the lift yourself and you're depending on a spotter to do the work for you it is fucking dangerous. I'm no newbie. Serious lifters tend to take a more scientific approach then bodybuilders.

Yippikayee! Yet another self made specialist who are willing to wipe down to toilet everything what we know about bodybuilding, including all the theories which are proven again and again in practice. Hallelujah. Just one question for your superhuman mind: Why are you talking your power lifter shit in bodybuilding forum, answering to question concerning about widely known bodybuilding technique?  
Have you difficulties to separate these two ports from each other? I give a hint: Bodybuilding is all about muscle size, symmetry and things like that. Power lifting is all about how fucking much you can lift in three separate lifts. More than that, you have made quite clear that you don't even know what forced rep means, and I am sorry to say that your not first power lifter with same handicap. If you are a true lifter, you will know guys like Ano Turtiainen. When I was lifting in his gym when it was placed in Helsinki, I used to spot for his bench press lot of times. How to do it is simple. You don't do just about anything, just put your fingertips under the bar and apply just enough extra lift that movement doesn't stop. When he is done, you ask one more, and after that, one more. You let him stop only when he has done couple of reps beyond his failure point. It is just same with squat, but instead of lifting at the barbell, you apply your extra lift by lifting him by your hands on his sides or you can use the technique from that video- clip. You don't have to use any force, he do it just about by himself, you just help him maintain the momentum. Of course, if he has calculated his strengths poorly and he meet his failure point  too soon, you have to be ready to take the control of that weight. Anyway, the routine is just that simple, but there is great number of lifter who cannot do it right. Fact is that it is very useful and effective technique regardless what some wannabe- power lifter may think about it. Finally, here is something to you to think about. There is more than 300 exercises which you must know if you want to build a perfect body. More than 300, and power lifters use less than 50. Which sport is more demanding? Don't get me wrong, I have medals from both sports, and I highly appreciate power lifting as a sport. I just appreciate bodybuilding much more.

It's bodybuilding, there shouldn't be any momentum. That's the difference, a powerlifter doesn't give a shit whether he
can feel his pecs working as long as he can lock it out who gives a shit?

Yeah, doesn't it suck when you have to do a 300lb upright row for a guy who has "calculated his strengths poorly?"
You don't have to explain how to spot during the bench press it's the forced reps we disagree with each other on.

Well, I thought about it and after thinking about it I came to the conclusion that you are full of shit. BTW, there's alot more then 50 exercises that powerlifters use. Fuck, I only deadlift about 3 times a year. I do more good mornings than squats and I only do flat benching when doing speed work. I can think of at least 20 different assistance exercises for the deadlift off the top of my head. I'm no expert but you're clearly misinformed.

Congrats on all your medals you got in bodybuilding you must look great in a thong. Care to share more about bodybuilding theory and technique?

When he is done, you ask one more, and after that, one more. You let him stop only when he has done couple of reps beyond his failure point. It is just same with squat, but instead of lifting at the barbell, you applyyour extra lift by lifting him by your hands on his sides or you can use the technique from that video- clip. You don't have to use any force, he do it just about by himself, you just help him maintain the momentum. Of course, if he has calculated his strengths poorly and he meet his failure point  too soon, you have to be ready to take the control of that weight. Anyway, the routine is just that simple, but there is great number of lifter who cannot do it right. Fact is that it is very useful and effective technique regardless what some wannabe- power lifter may think about it. Finally, here is something to you to think about. There is more than 300 exercises which you must know if you want to build a perfect body. More than 300, and power lifters use less than 50. Which sport is more demanding? Don't get me wrong, I have medals from both sports, and I highly appreciate power lifting as a sport. I just appreciate bodybuilding much more.

Not even going to bother reading this shit. If you can't type in sentences and paragraphs, why would anyone believe you are smart enough to lifts weights?

in true olympic lifts you dont spot

it causes a risk for injury moreso

if you cant press the weight you tank it out - spotting is for btchs

Spotting squatters should be outlawed in all gyms.

It's just an excuse for the Dude in the wooly hat to press his genetalia against the other Dude's buttock region.
