Gym Etiquette

Gym Post:  Went to the gym Wednesday for the Push-Pull Routine.

While I was there, I watched someone do some kind of bending exercise with a thirty pound barbell weight on his shoulders.  As I watched how his spine (and not his hips) was bending, I kept thinking that he was going to throw his lower back out.  It was one of those awkward moments where on one hand you don't want someone to hurt themselves, but on the other hand, you're not a trainer and maybe that's the way the exercise is done.

 I know "Hey, um, I think you're doing that wrong," isn't one of the top five things I want to hear when I'm working out.
