@TM 's method works as long as you have the your hand above the pedal spindle
Which I always do for additional power from my body weight.
Despite our oversized brains some of us are wired in ways that give us special powers. Mines dyslexia which is why I struggle to remember certain things
Possibly because you're trying to remember it as a table with two columns and one row (or one column and two rows), rather than as a picture. @TM 's method works as long as you have the your hand above the pedal spindle. The other way is to remember that if the pedal bearing seizes, the pedal will unscrew. This also works for English BB threads - if the axle and the cup are locked together, the normal rotation of the axle will unscrew the cup from the shell.
