Am I a selfish jerk because I don't like spotting strangers?

I hate that shyt but I always feel obligated too, because I've asked ramdom strangers to spot before.

but I hate when I'm in that zone, got the blood pumping, I'm hype to start the next set.... :birdman:

And then some muffakka taps me on the shoulder for a spot. :beli:

That shyt kills my buzz, watching this clown do struggle reps and my body is cooling down.

:damn: hurry up nikka!

Gotta be courteous about asking. I have no probs tellin a MFer to wait till I do my set.

Really though if you need a spot on a weight just drop the weight. If you need someones help to get the lift off, odds are very high you are doing too much. I won't ever pick up a weight I don't feel confident I could safely rack. That shyt will blow your fukkin cool. Trapped under the bar like HELP ME SPOT SPOOOOOT HELP!!!! :bryan:

:whoa: Its gym ettiquette breh, since all my patners started slacking or going to different gyms, I have to ask a random nikka to help me out every now and again, most dudes in there know I be pushing heavy though :youngsabo:

What I hate though is when you spot some weak strugllin ass nikka and then he wants to be your workout buddy for the rest of your sesh :beli:
