Deadlift doesn't require a spotter. If the lifter can't complete the lift, he simply lets go or lowers it back to the floor.

Spotting is used when the load is over the lifter and has the potential to crush them, such as a squat or bench press.

For the bench press, you're standing practically over his head. Do not lift the bar unless he fails. You're there to assist him when he can't go any further, not to help him with forced reps.

Yeah, no spot on a deadlift, lifter just lets go.

I feel to truely spot well on bench, you almost have to have your crotch over their forehead. You wanna be able to snatch that bar close to your body when its a heavy load and they could fail.

but don't pre-maturely grab the bar until you see them really stuck for a full count. even then, grab gently, and assist them with completeing the rep. and racking the bar.

can you explain in more detail please,
for example how i stand
were i stand when i lift ect

i know theres no need for spotter on the deadlift but ive been asked by my personal trainer to find out the spotting technique for the dead lift because,

thanks

i would find a new personal trainer

no in my course
work it ask what are the teching techniques for the dead lift and the bench lift
ive done the bench lift part but cant do the dead lift

hi i'm doing my gym instructor course at the moment and have to do the same thing. although you don't necessarily need a spotter for the deadlift, for this case we have to say you do.

best technique i found was simply to stand head on with the lifter and if they are unable to finish a rep, then take the weight off them and lift it steadily and safely to the floor.

if you say you don't need a spotter the assesor will say simply dropping the weight has the danger of

a)landing on the lifters toes
b) the wieght can bounce and hit another gym user

spotting a deadlift is just wrong, imo, doesn't matter how you do it. The lifter can just drop the bar, no need for anyone to help him lower it controlled. Any way to spot the deadlift could end in disaster for the spotters. you could put one dude on each side of the bar and have them help if needed by simply squatting down and grabbing the bar and helping the lift or whatever, but if the lifter drops the bar while the spotters are holding on to it they could get injured. Standing face to face with the lifter would probably be a bad idea IMO as you'd be standing in the way and you'd be a disturbance.

And for the bench, yeah, you have to be close, you can't do much if the bar is far out in front of your body. And the most annoying thing in the world is when your spotter helps you just because the bar slows down a bit at your sticking point.

Plain and simply, drop the weight on deadlift.

As for bench press, there are multiple ways that I spot depending on how experience and well I think/know the person doing the bench press. My leg are spread shoulder length apart and staggered with the right leg more in front. My crouch is almost over their forehead. My hand grip is inverted as well with the right knuckle facing toward the leg of the bench presser and the left knuckles facing towards me. When they do need the spot, I slowly bend with the knee and elbow and lift when they need it.

There are 2 cases of spotting: 1 rep max or spotting for them to do 1-2 extra rep (trying to go from 6 rep to 8 or 10 rep total). On a one rep max, i am focus and ready to pull up after the person is stuck for about 1/2 a second to 1 second at most with a SLOW and steady lift. I try not to jerk the weight up too fast or too slow to the point of the presser running out of energy and cannot lift it up. On spotting the extra rep case, I would HOOVER over the bar once they are struggling with their final 2ish rep. When they do need the help, i would only gently assist 5-10 pounds lift and let the rep go up slowly; increasing the assisted lift more or less varing with the person struggling and their form. If their form is completely off and BAD ( overly arching their lower back or flaring their elbows out too much or lopsided), I will pull up as fast as I can to save them from injury. If they can maintain their form, i will let the ascending press up nice and slow.

sorry to make it soo long, just trying to be detailed.
