Does anyone ever address something like this? Number 1, I don't want to see anyone hurt. Number 2, I don't want to be "That Guy". Poor form is rampant in my gym. I normally don't say anything, but there is this guy (wears the multi color tiger striped pants, grunts, screams, throws the weights around, poses, etc - and has nothing to be very proud of) that has a form that is going to get him hurt (bench press bouncer, back user, etc). The most egregious example is his standing barbell military press. His back is leaned back, almost at a 45 degree angle. I am not lying, he looks like he is doing a standing incline bench press. I don't know the guy and quite frankly his poor form isn't hurting me. I don't want to be "That Guy" who thinks he knows it all. I would like to think that the trainers/owners of the gym would say something to him, but it has been it doesn't appear that anyone has. Any suggestions?
