    Did she stand up with it at the top, or was it just some kind of smith machine row?

    All that's missing from the video is the personal trainer sub-species.

    I'm still chugging through this thread but I finally had something funny to add.

    At the gym tonite and its chock full of high school curl bros using every machine in sight and the preacher curl rack. I need a lift off for bench because I have problems with my neck and that little angle and bit of effort causes a lot of pain.

    I look around to find a curl bro to help out. I see a curl bro in full sweats, baggy hoodie, short cropped hair under a backwards hat jumping back and forth between leg extensions and legs curls with hardly any weight in either. Seems perfect.

    I walk up to him and ask for a lift off. As soon as the words leave my mouth I realize that it's actually a girl. She's less than thrilled and so am I but I feel committed. We head to the bench. I try to get to the bench and set up before the spotter gets there to take up less of their time. I'm already laying down when she gets there. As I'm sorting my grip she comes around the side and starts to throw her leg over me like she's gonna sit on my chest and pull the bar that way. I was not prepared for that but her reluctance makes a lot more sense now. I slide off quickly and explain what I'm actually looking for. Totally awkward for both of us. She left immediately after that.

    I feel kinda bad but really it was freaking hilarious. I looked around but no one else seemed to see it go down.

    I think my new strategy is to ask the super hotties for spots and see if I can get the same response.
