Nikita

You decided to work out at the gym. When you arrived, you started with a warm-up. Half an hour later, you moved on to squats with a barbell. You put 5 kg weights on the barbell. You stood with your back to it and, slightly lifting it, loaded it onto your shoulders. Nikita, meanwhile, noticed you, seeing your fragility. He understood that perhaps he needed help. And indeed, after doing eight squats, you squatted on the ninth, no longer having the strength to straighten your knees. Nikita was immediately there, lifting you by the waist with his hands and then helping you place the barbell on the railing. What did you do?
