7) NO SPOTTERS. You're there to build your chest, not some other dudes shoulders. We want to shock your body, and although it looks silly, that bloke grunting as he struggles to keep the bar from falling let alone moving it up is doing the most for himself in the whole place. You will learn how to exucute the exercise properly without one.

Spotting is an issue of safety NOT of cheating.
I did squats 2 years ago without a spotter... two guys behind me were fucking around and BAM. I needed back surgery, and I'm just barely restarting being able to do squats. I will never work out with any serious weight without a spotter again. Dont make my mistake, dont say to yourself "I'm macho enough"... cause I was doing 285 at the time and that was only my first set.
