When I train with a partner it usually turns into a competition of who can lift the most, which usually isn't good for anyone.
If I train alone then its all about ME, making MY sets, tracking MY progress and lifting MY weights. I don't have to worry about someone touching the bar, or trying to rush, or whinning about too much weight or there fuckin vagina hurting
.
I do like to have a partner from time to time if I'm lacking motivation, if I go with a partner, there's no way in fucks world I can miss a set or use pussy weights....I'm supposed to be fearless in the iron jungle, I can't be a pussy if I'm telling my partner he's a pussy for not wanting to squat.

You find creative ways of spotting yourself and keeping from getting trapped under the bar without having to dump the plates
I usually go in the mornings and the gym is dead, so if I'm benching alone I'll grab a squat rack and set the rails so I can still use a full ROM and not get stuck under the bar if I hit failure
