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
Spot
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'.
