Happy New Year to all of my MG Brothers. This is the time of the year for "resolutions" and many of us will find the gym more crowded than in December, typically for a few weeks at least. This is the time of year for patience as Newb's will be trying to shed some weight or get in better shape, in the limited space well all try to occupy and for some of us enthusiasts take very seriously.
The real question for the brothers and one I contemplate is how do you handle the new guys and gals at the gym? Helpful? Scornful? Ambivalent?
Personally, my pet peeve is folks who try to do a circuit on 2+ pieces of equipment, thus tying up equipment oblivious to gym etiquette. I've tried to offer advice a few times, usually when I see someone about to injure themselves, but I find many of the new fellas are too proud to accept the information and make excuses, like "I'm injured that's why I am bending my arms when doing shoulder shrugs>" Geez......it should be interesting.....
