Answer 1

C. At all times.

You need to communicate from beginning to the end. He/She wll be assisting with posture, asking if the weights are to much or should your load be lightened a lil. They will ask about your comfort. So communication should happen throughout.

Answer 2

Answer D
Communication between a spotter and lifter should take place while planning the routine since a spotter who loses balance during the assistance phase puts both spotter and lifter at greater risk of injury. Communication ensures coordinated effort and timing of force application.
