The safeties are a fail safe when every other safety system fails. It is not your primary safety component.
A team or partner serves many needs:
- safety in terms of spotting
- safety in terms of feedback to guide you to proper form
- safety in terms of damage control if you suffer an injury and need medical attention (especially if you have a stroke or aneurysm during a lift)
- encouragement to maibtain your routine
- graeme 7y agoThanks! I’m going to see if I can find one when I return to lifting. So minimum team number is 3. How long do sessions usually last? I’m guessing you lift during others’ breaks, so it doesn’t add as much extra time as if it were all in sequence.
- failrate 7y agoYes, you rotate who is lifting. I don't lift enough to need two spotters. Sessions last an hour to an hour and a half.
