Also, if you get a chance, be sure to watch these videos (below) about how to spot another lifter. These videos can also be found on the main CrossFit site; in them, Coach Rippetoe specifically addresses the bench press, but his comments apply to most lifts (personally I'm leaning toward "all lifts," but maybe there's a few exceptions that I can't think of right now). At any rate, if you haven't seen these videos, watch them. Even if you're sure that you're the best spotter in the world - watch them (besides, at times, they're pretty entertaining too).
