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 Training
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'.
