I wonder if she is even aware she is being stalked by a large black scribble ? Let me guess , that ' s the illusive patriarchy ? <| sep |> Let me just post about lifting when I know nothing at all about lifting . His only mistake there was taking one half step too far back . He used the rails . That ' s what the rails are for . Failing on a squat never looks cool but it happens to anyone who really pushes themselves , and that is exactly what a squat fail looks like . Well , except for the left side bouncing off the rail because , again , he was half a step too far back . Also , for what it ' s worth , a spotter would have been unable to do much of anything there except maybe . maybe . keep the bar from bouncing off the left rail . But probably not . No spotter is going to pull you out of a fail on a 7 or 8 plate squat . Or even a 4 plate squat . The best they can do is keep you from falling backwards and ganking your neck .
