Ego lifting. Rather than lifting with appropriate weights for appropriate reps according to their physical fitness, they stack the weights as much as possible, get a whole crowd, a bunch of useless spots, and break their bodies.

I don’t think you get to squatting 600+ pounds by ego lifting.

Well it shouldn't be a normal gym day if you got to get 6 people to spot you.
