When you see someone at the gym.....

Tweetusing improper form on the machine, and such, do yo approach them and tell them? WE see so many people doing the wrong thing and they are right infront of trainers and the trainers don't say jack shit!!!! Sometimes even they have their clients doing stupid stuff that can injure them.

TweetOh you bet your sweet ass I do. I have pretty much given up on trying to correct peoples form unless its literally going to do damage their body or if they ask. Because most just continue doing it the wrong way as soon as I walk away. Now we have this complete bag of ass personal trainer. Looks like the white version of erkle in skinny leg sweat pants. I walk in the other day and he had on 315 on bench. My first thought was this homosexual is going to smash himself. I can't help myself. I pointed and laughed and told him and his partner they both better lay in the bench if they want to move that weight. He rolled his eyes like a chick. Laid down unracked the weight and brought it down no bullshit 3 to 4 inches twice and reracked it. My legs partner was there by now. He iimmediately starts in on the guy. He points laughs and tells the guy something along the lines of give up you are a ***** and should be fired. So his partner slaps on ten more pounds on each side and reps out two using the same form. Now my partners is on a full ride to Wichita state wrestler 6'0" 230lbs I'm about the same minus being a badass wrestler. He goes over and unracks everything off their bar but a 45 on each side. He told them practice doing it right with that. They walked out. The general manager asked me if there was a problem between me and a personal trainer. I told him that I took care of it and that was that. I can't stand a personal trainer that is a complete peice of shit skronny puuuusayyy that ****s his clients out of money.

TweetNo I dont tell them..If I was their trainer then of course I would

[chris32]

Tweeti used to try but don't waist my time anymore unless they ask. like hh said... they just go back to doing it wrong when you walk away or they are the type that knows it all and you can't tell em sh!@ anyway lol.

[Ezskanken]

TweetEldery women yes, elderly men no since the gym i go to is on base, and 99.9% of those guys are ritired military with attitudes ha ha!

[mfdvr]

TweetI only do if she's cute:-) A lot of guys get attitude when you show them how to lift, even though I'm an ex personal trainer. Now I rarely bother with a guy unless he's willing to take some advice. Usually if I push a bunch of weight I'll have younger guys approach me and ask for advice, I don't mind that at all.....

[Big Dan]

TweetNo. I did in the past and when I did help them then they thought I was the one to always come to. Can you give me a work out can you help me. So now I just keep my mouth shut!

TweetNope! I don't say anything until they ask! This happens just about everyday, too! I'll be doing db curls for example and the kid next to me that's half my size is using twice the weight I am! Whatever, though! I let 'em do their thang! One day it'll click just like it dose for most! I am a personal, though, but my clients are different! They are all taught proper control and form, and most of them hardly use any weight at all! I do have a couple younger male clients that still lift to heavy and look stupid when their not with me! I don't say anything to them either because they know better!!

[unclem]

Tweeti mind my business as i don't want them to get hurt but i know they wont listen anyway. but if they ask ill tell them. but i kinda iam get my own shit done.

[sofargone561]

[Keith1569]

TweetNo I don't

But there is a group of guys between 40 and 60 that all workout together and they willingly give advice to everyone!! Drives me crazy! Don't get me wrong they are in damn good shape, but just drives me crazy ha

[sofargone561]
