for those that use boards (lol)
anyone ever realize the difference between strapping the boards on your chest and having someone hold them for you???

last week i forget my band that i use to hold the boards so i had someone hold it for me what a difference..the weight didnt seem to flatten me out like it normally does and obviously the boards were much sturdier..

anyone opinions? its just always hard for me to find someone capable of spotting and holding boards LOL
 
i've seen people put them under their shirts but I've always had someone holding them for me.

bench in the powerrack with the pins set below the board height but higher than your ugly face so a spotter isnt necessary then almost anyone can be taught to hold 2x4s lol
 
Never tried strapping, I've always used a partner. Now I have no training partner though :(
 
I tried strapping once and just felt awkward. I think it was more mental than anything, but trying to switch from having a partner to strapping them down was not good.

if your alone or can only get one spotter just use a smaller bungee cord to hold the board down..it works but obviouisly its better with someone holding them
