Why should you never do an exercise such as the bench without a spotter?

Because, if you miscalculate and get stuck under the weight, you could end up injuring yourself or damaging the equipment from "dumping" the weight (in the event of getting stuck in the bench press). In additions, spotters are also there to ensure that catastrophic accidents, such as dropping the weight on your neck (there are some nasty videos on YouTube of this happening), can be prevented.

If you are lifting with any heavy weight, you should NEVER go forward without a spotter. Failure to do so may result in serious injury and/or damage to the equipment.

Is it better to work out every day or every two days?

I think you will find it to better if you were to lift every other day because then in between days you would be able to rest and do what you want to do. I know you didn't ask for anymore or any less but I recommend you working out once or twice a week, enabling you to split the body into two groups. If you are new to weightlifting do shoulders on one day and chest biceps triceps on another. I hope this answer helps.

Can bench press cause a hernia?

Yes, it is possible to tear a hole (hernia) from lifting too much. In the case of lifting weights, most often the muscles in the lower abdominal area are affected. The muscles, especially weaker muscles, can tear from the extreme pressure/ strain put on them from lifting very Heavy weights. The contents (an organ or any other bodily structure) inside the wall can then "spill out" or stick out causing pain and what is known as a Hernia. Although treatments such as surgery are available, prevention is always the best way to go. Ask a friend to help when lifting heavy objects, Don't push yourself too hard with weights at the gym and see a doctor if you have constipation or abdominal issues, especially if you are a person in your golden years.

Which MLB player has the highest bench press?

== == Well without a doubt, the ones who take the most steroids typically are the strongest for some strange coincidence, perhaps some argue that they are cheating, well let the pros decide. Bench press isn't all that important in the MLB as in other sports such as football. Batters and pitchers extensively workout their lower body to be able to achieve massive amounts of steghns to generate the force necessary to hit the ball or thrust a 100mph heater. Upper body is essential however especially for sluggers who relly on raw power to post a 450+ ft Homerun everytime at bat. My estimate is pitchers, petite outfielders, pinch runners, and other smaller players might be in the 200-300 range. Silver sluggers, Designated hitters, heavy lineup batters, perhaps in the 300-500 range. Umpires: they can bench a broom dipped in chrome for about 2 reps.
