Am I the only one WICKED uncomfortable with the super handsy squat spot? Please comment below cos I gotta figure this out. I get it on the platform. Stay safe. But i see gym lifters doing 5x5 with a dude balls to butt & hands on them all the way. I don't even spot my lifters on a max rep. I'll set safety pins and spot the bar. Did I miss something where you're supposed to squat with someone else's hands on your waist or chest the whole time? Cos I'll be honest. first i was taught thats no lift. Someone else touches you or the bar thats not a rep. And worse, I really only see it happen with dudes spotting women. Not so much dudes with dudes. #couldbewrong #opentobeingwrong #stillseemscreepy #powerlifterquestions #powerlifterproblems
