But you never know man, he's looking for the basics. Asking for help from someone at a gym isn't terrible. It will help him develop his knowledge and then he'll be able to do his own thing from there.

I'd draw the comparison to a boxing class or a game of shinny at the rec center. All the people there have a general grasp of what they're and are there to just improve their lives. You're not going to meet a professional, but you're going to somewhere people have a common interest and share a sense of general knowledge. Obviously the people there can HELP him develop the foundation, and provide him with some of their anecdotal advice. It's up to him to take things with a grain of salt and see what works for him.

Fitness is different for different people. He just needs to find a goal, set it, and figure out a path to achieve it. Maybe those gym bro's can help him deadlift 3 plates by showing him how to perform the exercise. Then he looks it up online and see's that there are various stances for deadlifts. He researches proper positioning and such, develops what works for him, and bam he's there.

I understand what you're getting at, that taking advice from random people may not be the best thing, but OP has enough of a brain to realize he has a problem, he should have enough of a brain to realize "Hey what this guy said is retarded, I'll ask someone else"

Cheers man

If someone got an aortic dissection from lifting fucking weights, it was going to happen anyways.

kid is so mad that he looks like a lawn gnome on steroids but at least he can "prove" it

i run for an hour a day to be healthy, not to impress anyone. i don't have such low self esteem that i feel the need to lift weights every hour on the hour. you could probably just jerk off all the other bros you spend your day with at the gym and get the same workout, hell, you can double down then and get your protein all at once

i hoenstly feel bad for people like you. you're going to look like a shrivelled shell of a human being by the age of 35 and as i said in my OP have saggier tits than my grandma. that or you'll continue juicing and just look like a pathetic old white trash biker type

but i don't juice anymore?! and i dont plan on competing anymore either (reason i did)

so..?! again, your brilliant argument #2 is invalid.
damn im good at this keyboard battling.

e/ i dont even think you're reading my posts, i just said i barley lift weights anymore
where are you coming up with these statements lmao
