Strategies
With
This can be considered as the plant counterpart of Unlife of the Party. However, with much better strength and health stats, this is a really good plant to use. First of all, this plant gets stronger the more plants you play, so it is best to plant this at the beginning of the round to get maximum strength. The player can also play it later when the player has more sun to use. Its stats when planted are already great for a 3 sun plant as well. Muscle Sprout can also synergize well with Potted Powerhouse, as this will get buffed every time you play a plant, constantly increasing Potted Powerhouse's strength and health.
Against
Destroying this plant can be a struggle, as planting more plants by the plant hero will increase its power. If this is used early, try and destroy it fast, before the plant hero has a chance to boost its stats. If this is planted late game, use a powerful zombie, otherwise, Locust Swarm or Rocket Science might be needed.

Trivia
Its description is a reference to the phrase "spot me," which is used by weightlifters to ask someone to observe themself while lifting weights, as a safety measure in case the weight the weightlifter is lifting falls onto the weightlifter.
