actually that ties into one of my pet peeves.
when you get these guys that think they can lift big on bench and they ask for a spot from one of their friends. and it becomes a two man dead lift..

I have to say, I have no problem with forced reps, its a great way to shock the muscles, and inject some new life into a routine.

But if thats what you are doing, just say "hey i'm doing some forced reps do you mind helping" ... not "I need a spot, i'm gonna get three" then i do all the lifting on those reps, but i wasnt prepared for it, so my next set is shit because I put out maximal effort on someone elses lift.

Overall its tough to communicate with meatheads hahahahah
