For about 6 months now I have been training at a gym with a lot of college students.
I see them pencilnecks performing endles sets on the leg extension, pushdown, pec deck you name it.
They look with both awe and disgust at me doing 400+ lbs deadlifts.....
Should I (should we?) instruct them that if they wanna getbig they got to do the powerlift movements first?
Or should we just let them figure it out themselves?
Question: do you correct bad choice of exercise/bad form ?

Calling bullshit on you deadlifting 400+lbs.
-
No, it's obnoxious to give advice in a gym.
-
Unless they ask me, I usually ignore them.
-
I always give them the bad advices
-
NO
-
No, you mind your own fucking business. >:(

try it out... some will be grateful, some wont
-
Only if they ask for advices.
-
No.
-
They look at me like I`m crazy if I offer advice so I now let them keep spinning their wheels and add them to the ranks of gym idiots.
-
no
-
Give advice if you‘re qualified to do so. And no, 15 years of gym membership does not make u qualified.

No pics or vids of this fake ass 400+lb deadlift?

They are more interested in talking about pseudoscience and things Dr Oz might tweet about.

C'mon dude like a 400 lbs deadlift is something special...it was just an example, but I indeed deadlift over 400.
Could have mentioned a 240 lbs bench or a 300 lbs squat. Not that terrific huh?

Build a rapport with the twerps. Then get their moms number. Bang the mom.

Remember Ducth most getbiggers can barely lift the toilet seat when they sit down to piss.
UNLESS someone asks, just do your thing .
;D ;D
-
But seriously: if these 18-20 yr old dudes got some REAL good advise (not from their "personal trainers" who are a joke, at leat over here in Holland.) they could be put on the right track gaining some mass.
I keep silent, but the point is that I made their mistakes too, way back when.
Aren't we obliged to do someting????

Depends on who it is. If I see a kid or a new trainee doing something wrong, I'll simply ask "do you mind If show you something?" the answer is usually "yes" if its no then its no. Nothing wrong with trying to help someone

Do you mind if I show you something?
Yes.
IE, yes I mind, fuck off. :D

You nor Dutch can do 400+lbs deads. Maybe together....unlikely though.
-
you pulling Medford on a perma bulk? :-X
-
I only offer advice when asked.

I was asked to help this older guy doing some 400 lb dead lifts.
He told me to take a pic of him deadlifting .
I ignored him and took pics of this cute girl in yoga pants doing stiff legged deads.
I wonder if he ever got his pics posted? ;D
;D Howard you are funny again.

What qualifies someone? Confused? A week internet personal trainer certificate? The one I took covered anatomy and physiology at a 6th grade level. When I was in college it was a two semester 8 credit course with a lab. The week internet course test on the topic could have been passed with 5 minutes of study. Personally I will listen to advice from a guy who has trained naturally for 30 to 40 years who is in shape over any 20 something with internet certificates. If someone is not in shape in their 20's and 30's they are lazy bastards with no work ethic. I also discount many times the advice of steroid users. Tell me what I have to do be in shape when you're clean for 6 months so I can see how their advice works for them. Most steroid users look like crap off the assist.

Fuck em. 99.9 won’t be in the gym after a month.

One stupid millennial told me he wanted to be "a cageeeee fighter!"
I told the first thing he needs is tribal tattoos.
He only went and got them done! :D
-
I competed against this one big idiot that got kicked out of a great gym.
He'd see some older female on the leg press and act like he was stretching by the machine.
Then, in the middle of her set , turn his back, squat down and FART In HER FACE :o
Obviously the woman complained to the gym manager.
Since she wasn't alone in her complaint, he got booted out.
...and we wonder why bodybuilding isn't a mainstream sport. ;)
Hahahhaha that was pretty fucking funny.
-
Most people are assholes and they deserve to hurt themselves in the gym so i say have at it.If you ask me for help i will help you but im not offering shit to this crap society.

Yes, don't listen to the fucking idiots in this thread.
Depressing as shit, no wonder we're all into bodybuilding...

Im amazed his face hasn't been smashed in with a wrench.

Only when asked or if the person looks genuinely perplexed by something (like how to adjust a machine, etc...). Otherwise nope.

Medford aka The Sloath. Lol

Come to think of it, there have been a few times I've helped someone out who appeared not to know how to adjust or use a machine.

This selfish attitude is what landed most of us in the gym in the first place. The gym is like a purgatory for vanity.
"I'll just mind my own business, even if I see someone I could really help... unless they ask."
Imagine if someone had helped you when you were a kid. Maybe you wouldn't have fucked up so many times. Maybe you wouldn't feel so unaccomplished and weak. And, maybe, you wouldn't feel the need for a shiny muscle suit to drape over your inner worthlessness.

Interesting way to put this.

15 years of experience isn't enough, but correspondence course of two weeks makes anybody a fully qualified Personal Trainer? ;D
-
Ok, let's do an experiment to test your idea?
Go ahead and make a video of you , offering to help people who didn't ask for it, at your gym.
I predict you'll get a warm reception, especially from attractive females in their 20's and similar age gym bros.
Might be a great idea to run up and spot the ladies from behind while doing squats.
Look fwd to a full report.
Hope this helps. ;)
between me and you there are two important differences: i look like i lift and im not 60.

Medford aka The Sloath. Lol
it's Sloth. Hope this helps.
