Thank you both, I appreciate it.

It's especially frustrating because this personal trainer is one that I work with. He's new to the gym but that's it.

I feel if I were to say anything, as with a lot of men, it'll be, 'I've been doing this for X amount of years, I know what I'm doing'. Personally I think a personal trainer can never 100% know what they're doing. There's always new science, and new things to learn.

The thing is, because he's been involved in fitness for 20 years, he should know better. Even if he was brand new I wouldn't excuse it. It's a matter of physical health. These are people's lives we're trying to change. One bad PT can ruin it for the rest of us.

Whenever I have a new client I always demonstrate the importance of performing exercises safely and effectively. I explain why it's important to do them in a specific way, as well as highlighting the dangers. PT's are meant to be educators.
