How to secure your gym crush 101 "hey excuse me" "i'm going for a PR" "Spot Spot Spot!"

What it means

A man approaches a woman in a gym and asks her to spot him for a personal-record squat. She gets behind him and enthusiastically supports him, turning the safety spot into an exaggeratedly intimate embrace; the joke is a flirtatious, suggestive way of trying to get close to a gym crush. Creed’s alternative rock song “One Last Breath” plays underneath, adding melodramatic intensity to the absurd seduction attempt.

Speech

Hey, excuse me? Can you give me a spot real quick? I'm going for a PR, just so I'm just coming from behind. Give me a spot, a spot, a spot, a spot, a spot, a spot, a spot.
