HOW TO
USE SPOT
BLOCKS
Using Spot Blocks is
quick
and easy. Just follow these instructions:
To
Use
Spot
Blocks
as a Secondarv Lockinq Device
1. Before
positioning
Spot Blocks,
place
the barbell into the lowest
position
for the
exercise
you
will be
performing.
2.
Once barbell is
placed
in desired
position,
lower
Spot
Blocks
so
that they
are touching the top of the slider locking block
(the
black box
with the
ProSpot
Fitness @ logo on it). To move Spot Blocks,
place your
index
and
middle fingers
underneath
the finger
grip
and
your
thumb on the
push-
release lever. Push
in the
push-release
lever
with
your
thumb and move
into desired
position.
Release the
push-release
lever to lock the Spot lock
in
place,
then
ensure they are securely
locked
before using barbell.
3. Once in
place,
the barbell cannot be lowered beyond the
position
of the
Soot
Blocks.
To
Use Spot Blocks as a Traininq Aid
1.
Determine where
your'sticking point'
is for desired
exercise.
(The
'sticking
point'
refers to the
specific
portion
of the movement where
you
are
the
weakest
and struggle to
move the barbell
upward any
further.)
2. Position the
Spot
Blocks
at
the beginning of
your'sticking point'. (Refer
to
f2
above on
how
to
move
Spot
Blocks.)
3.
Perform
the desired exercise
with
Spot
Blocks in
place.
You will not
be
able to lower the bar below
your'sticking point',
causing
your
muscles to
work harder
at this
point.
Using
this technique will strengthen this area and
help to
eliminate
your
'sticking
point'.
