If someone has bad form in the gym, do you correct them?

I would never have time to workout if I did. Unless someone's going to literally kill themselves they're on their own.

Only if I'm genuinely concerned they'll break something in a bad way and it just looks horrible and if they are a teenager.

I brought up a guys squat form up once , his knees were almost caved inward or something and it just looked HORRIBLE. He was very tall and lanky so the angles kinda made sense but it just looked soooooooo off so I had to say something.

I didn't even say anything that crazy "hey man just checkin in you good here? you need a spot? I was watching your knees and it looked a little shaky"

We had a polite exchange , never saw that dude again.

I don't bother helping adults - you either take the time to learn online or you don't after a certain age and gotta have some ownership

I don't know if I should say anything. there's some lard tard at my gym (I think he's actually autistic or something) but he just will go to a machine, barbell, dumbbell and start repping really aggressively and then put it down and speed walk fast as fuck to the next machine or whatever piece of equipment. for example there is this lat pulldown machine and I see him speed walking down the gym in the corner of my eye and he sits down, doesn't even make sure someones using and would just start yanking on it like a total retard and only doing half reps if that. then he just gets up, speedwalked to the barbells and started repping a 40 pounds barbell so aggressive that he was rocking with the momentum with his half reps. I want to tell him something so he lifts safely but its kind of funny. he speedwells so fuckin fast he's tilted forward when he does. oh he also wears a fanny pack

Some knee valgus is a sign of high quad recruitment just obviously don't let that shit buckle
You probably got some nice legs m8

>do you correct them?
not my job. The only reason I'd ever correct someone is if they were doing something so insane it endangered people around them. Has yet to happen.
