poor technique because the spotter should have their hands underneath the bar

Explanation:

A bench press is a training exercise which involves the upper body weight whereby the trainee lies on a weight training bench while pressing a weight upwards.

From the question, we are told that when spotting a bench press, the spotter stands with a straight back, hands under the arms of the lifter, and carefully watches the bar. This demonstrates poor technique because the spotter should have their hands underneath the bar. It should be noted that a spotter is vital as they help protect the lifter's safety.

The answer is D. Poor technique, because the spotter should have their hands underneath the bar.

Explanation:

Well first we haft to know that while spotting your back has to be straight (removing option B. witch goes agents this statement.) Your hands haft to be inside of the lifters hands and under the bar.

If there were two people, and their is not you would be on the side of the bar cupping two hands under the bar moving up and down with it. (this removes option C.)

A. Is removed because we know that the hands of the spotter should be under the bar stated in what I said earlier.

Leaving option D. as the only and correct answer.
