The very definition of training to failure is that your form will fail.
Weight bench no spotter needed.
The benefits of bench pressing inside of a rack include.
But ever wonder why it s so much easier to bench heavy weight on it than it is with a standard barbell.
You will often be lifting with other people around.
The biggest problem with this solution is that 99 of weight lifters have no clue how to spot or they only feel safe spotting their way rather than your way.
With barbell bench press if you fail the weight could crush your chest neck or face.
If the spotter can t help you lift the bar off your chest because it s too heavy they ll at least be able to help you tilt the barbell to one side so the weights can slide off the sleeves.
Simply ask one of them if they would mind spotting you.
Otherwise there are usually people on staff that will assist you if you need a spot.
The solution to bench pressing safely without a spotter is to do it inside of a power rack or squat rack that has safety pins or spotter arms designed to catch the weight in the case of a failed rep.
That s why people often do this exercise with a spotter a friend who can help you get the weight back up.
The safety pins are usually designed to hold several hundred pounds upwards to 1000 lb.
Even with a strong reliable spotter s accidents can and do happen.
I even bench press without collars when i do have a spotter.
If you don t have a spotter you might head straight to the smith machine to bench press.
Don t lift until you end up like this.
