This is probably a really stupid question. I work out at home and have nobody to spot me so, I am thinking about buying some spotter catchers like these:-
However, I can't see how they work. If I am bench pressing and my range of movement goes all the way down to my chest, surely the position they would need to be in to save me at failure is going to hinder the excercise? Unless you slightly offset them in front of you but, if I am at failure, there is no guarantee I could get the weight onto them.
Like I said, probably a stupid question but, before I invest in them, I just want to understand how they will work...
