That sounds really irresponsible of that trainer to post that, especially online where there will be impressionable people looking at that. It would make me very uncomfortable too and I fail to see how encouraging injruy, which would likely result in someone being unable to train, is beneficial to training. In my opinion, you're definitely not disallowed from saying anything based on the fact he's male and has been at it longer. Neither of those things mean that his way of working are better than yours, especially if his way of training people is likely to cause them harm. People can expect to get injured from time to time doing most things, but ti expect and promote serious injuries just seems dumb to me and I totally understand why you've lost a lot of respect for him.

I'm glad there are trainers who are not for that kind of training.
