Video Submission Q1 — Unit test

Question 21 • Weight Training Q1 - Murdock - 7740 - 2025/26

A few friends are having a disagreement about spotters. Select the statement that shows the individual understands the role of the spotter correctly.

Answer

Lisa says, "A spotter is important to protect the safety of the lifter but is not necessary for all types of lifts."

Shawna says, "A spotter is only necessary when you are doing a strength building workout."

Rachel says, "A spotter is only there to help you count your reps and restack the weights when you are tired."

Emma says, "A spotter is there to keep you motivated, and it is okay for them to work out while you are lifting."

Explanation

A spotter helps protect the lifter’s safety, especially during lifts where the weights could cause injury if the lifter cannot complete a repetition. Spotters are not necessary for every type of lift, so Lisa’s statement is correct. The other statements incorrectly limit a spotter’s role or suggest the spotter should focus on motivation rather than safety.
