    We are the vocal minority. The vast majority of MFP don't even "really get" what Net Calories are.

    Maybe they spot two girls at a time

    I don't need a spotter, I use the power cage bars for bench and squats ; P

    I lift heavy things, put. Back down, repeat. But "heavy" is very relative. Most days 70# is my HEAVY, because I am wimpy girl in a sundress. . .

    (But I can DL double what I can squat!)

    I rarely have a spotter, when I feel the need for a spotter, I call my 16 yr old son to come help me.

    (Which has been extra beneficial, because now he know when he needs to ask for a spotter when liftin)

    Squats with heavy weights and DeadLifts-they have helped that particular area stop looking droopy on me.

    I think by heavy lifters he meant weights above your body weight T_T

    I DeadLift more than my body weight.
    And the original post never put qualifiers on lifting heavy.
