@tinker@infosec.exchange @iris@neuromatch.social On the topic of needing a spotter, there are some extremely cool devices available now which use station-keeping brushless motors to provide resistance which can change extremely quickly. They can detect struggling or failure and immediately decrease the load. They can also adjust the load during a rep, so you’re doing barbell curls (for example) with 30 pounds on the contraction and 50 pounds on the extension. They’re currently in the thousands of dollars range, and most require subscriptions to be any good (looking at Tonal here). Still, an area to watch.
