>guy brings his gf into freeweight sections and shows her some lifts

who gives a shit? Mind your own business
Imagine being at the gym and some poindexter comes up "ermmm excuse me but that's the wrong way to squat"
shut the fuck up nerd

By being jacked.

That's up to him. It's not on you.
If you came up to me and offered advice that you were qualified to give, I would appreciate the fuck out of it. Other guys might get insecure and make an ass of themselves and get ick'd and lose their girlfriend. That's not our problem. We get jacked and help each other out. Fuck everybody else.

Damn, must be hard to work out at the gym in a full suit of armor

By asking your gf to approach him. You do have a gf, right?

Depends. Are you bigger or more ripped than him? If not, mind your own business and work on yourself.

You hit them with the full brunt of your autism and spare no details. Either they will listen, learn, and make better gains, they will ignore you and head towards the snapcity, or they will never be seen again in the gym.
>>
>>75612252
>How do I approach this without making him look like a bitch in front of his GF?
you don't approach shit. you only give advice and opinions when requested or at the very least welcome.
imagine you see a couple riding bikes in the park and you go over and start explaining how to ACKSHUALLY ride bikes.

nobody likes autists who come in with unnecessary advice. doesn't matter how much bigger, stronger and jacked you are than the BF. unless they ask you, there's good chance you'll make a fool of yourself.
>>
I want to live in a world where people are just like "hey man let me give you some advice because I'm more proficient than you" and we're all just learning things and doing shit right all the time. Instead I have to scour the internet asking multiple times about every little thing I don't understand and I occasionaly see thought school threads like this where people get the idea of being social and cool and competent absolutely flogged the fuck out of them.
>>
It's sometimes incredibly difficult to coach other people and explain the right cues even when you know how to lift yourself. Especially if it's a noob or a woman you're trying to teach.

>ummmm exchuse me I was just watching you guys from over there, and I’m afraid your technique on that lift isn’t optimal for maximum hypertrophy
Weightlifting needs are the worst. This hobby gets worse and worse by the second, and niggas like you are the reason for that. Just fucking lift weights and stop hyperanalysing everything you goddamn faggots

It's literally that easy. Just don't be a ">uhm ackshyuallee" bitch when giving people advice.
>Just fucking lift weights and stop hyperanalysing everything you goddamn faggots
you need to know what you're doing unless you're on roids

There have always been people like that, one guy tried to give me """advice""" for lat pulldowns. I told him to go away, I'm not gonna listen to the guy who moans with every rep.

The only reason you'd intervene here is if you wanted to make him look like a bitch in front of his GF. If you want to, go ahead

Is it really gauche to have people correct your form in the gym? I remember when I was starting I had people give me tips. It's one thing to critcize a routine or something but improper form can really fuck someone up.
>>

>Is it really gauche to have people correct your form in the gym?
It's standard practice. If the gyms is full of brown people, however (and you are a white-passing), you are obligated by /fit/ law to give bad advice that may result in one-way trips to snap city.
>>
>>75614397
I've never had other patrons give me good advice on form. The couple of times someone approached me was always to say some absolute retarded shit like "dude going below parallel on squats hurts your knees, don't do that". Funny cause they boomer in this instance was using a fucking smith machine and lifting considerably less than me. Thus, from personal experience, I can only assume OP is a dyel and retarded.
>>
>>75612252
Are you a personal trainer looking for new clients? If not then you should leave them alone. Don't be a faggot.
>>
like you can see from this thread, even if you have the best of intentions, people can get defensive and agitated. if you really want to jelp them anyway, maybe you should look if theres a personal trainer around and tell them that this guy is teaching shit form and maybe the PT could help.
>>
>>75614397
This is thread is full of idiots who can't lift for shit. Getting advice is an essential part of it. If you don't go to a serious gym you have to post videos online for form critique or you are simply not doing it right.
>>
>>75612284
I was doing dumbbell curls in the gym once and a guy interrupted me to teach me form and it wasn't bad at all. Actually I think it helped a lot. We didn't hook up afterwards I think he was just trying to help.
>>
>>75612284
I got unsolicited DL form correction from a roidboomer when I was a dyelnoob and I thanked him, it immediately fixed all the issues I was having. Stop being an anti-social freak
>>
>>75615097
>not even a handjob or blowie for his help

People like you are the reason nobody helps each other anymore in the gym.
>>
>>75614730
Or you're a redditard glassback
>>
>>75615151
It has little to do with safety.
>>
>>75612252
You go right next to them and lift way more. She has to know he's an insufficient bitch one way or another. You can lift more right? Like at least double what this so called weak guy can lift? Or are you falsely claiming superiority when you're the bitch?
