Do I need a spotter for strength training?


 

Question:

I have always been told that the best way to strength train is bench press, squats, clean and jerk, etc. However, I like to work out alone on my own time and have been told to never do those exercises without a spotter. What can I do to build muscle without the need for a spotter.

What types of exercises for arms can I do at home?


 

Question:

I can’t go to the gym but I have my own cardio equipment. I’m trying to do weight training by using my own body weight as resistance. I’ve been doing push ups and I can really feel it on the sides of my upper back and outer arms. What else can I do to work different sets of muscles in my arms with out buying weights, just using myself, to change it up?
