what the fuck am i supposed to do when a guy asks me to spot him when he does incline db press? i'm pretty new to the gym and a guy asked me to spot him. i just told him to "simply drop the weights" and he gave me this dirty look like i murdered his family. then i stood there like an idiot behind him watching him press dbs

I've been lifting for 6 years and I refuse to spot anyone.

Suffice to say I haven't made any friends at the gym yet and everybody tends to ignore me.

I don't spot anyone because the one and only time I did spot someone, they were super rude to me when I was spotting them because I touched the bar when I didn't need to, after that experience I never did it again.

Fucking cunts, don't ask for a spot and be a rude cunt about it. I hate people.

Unless you're at a Planet Fitness (hurr durr lunk alarm) it's not about dropping the weights. He wanted a spot so he doesn't dislocate his shoulder during a later rep. When you spot for db presses it's more about making sure they maintain a proper range of motion as they reach exhaustion.

so how do i do that? do i hold his hands straight or what?

No you push him off the bench and do the reps for him that's obviously what he wants
>>
When he shows sign of struggle gently carress his tricep or near his elbow and push up
