>But let's pretend it was a man.

Then you fix his shit.

If it's a woman it looks like you're trying to pick her up.

If anything you should approach the guy after and tell him what he did wrong, but not in front of his chick.

even though i have better form than most of the people at my gym, i still look DYEL as fuck. i doubt anyone would accept unsolicited advice from me.

>Is there some kind of gym etiquette to do this?

Yeah, never correct anyone's form unless they approach you.

You are supposed to keep to yourself at the gym, and when you get home passive aggressively post on a Chinese cartoon forum.

Just smile and gently tell them they're going to hurt themselves if they keep it up. And then if they ask what's wrong tell them what's wrong. If they act offended, just walk away and stop thinking about them.

I'd never say anything to anyone about bad form unless they asked me for advice especially for deadlifting because there are so many ways to do them and everyone thinks the know which on is best.

Please tell me you've never actually done this

You should give advice in moderation though, don't give it to experienced people (they have their own opinion, fuck off) and don't give it more than once to someone who doesn't seem to like it or follow it. Its okay to let noobs make some mistakes as long as theyre reasonably safe, dont be a cunt who keeps saying shit like your feet are angled bad all the time.

Bro stop you're going to hurt yourself!

Aye whitboi, you gon' snap yo shit. Stobbit. Send over your gf niggy

Good question.

Personally I never tell people because theres really no excuse for not knowing because of the internet. I wonder about their backs in the future and how theyll go home with real pain and attribute it to DOMS and then think thats the right way to go

Also its just a cunt thing to do to tell people how to train UNLESS youre much bigger/older than them. Strangers commented on my form when I was starting and I listened to everything they had to say. Its a big help.

Some weeks ago three guys came into the gym for the first time, they were obviously not experienced in any way and they did bench press.

They used a grip where their hands where BEYOND the little blank marks on the bar, elbows 90° to their torso. They put too much weight too.

I was standing next to them resting from OHP and one of the guys made like a painful grimace holding his shoulder, so I asked him if it hurts.

He said yes, so I asked him if he wanted some advice to stop the pain?
I then explained to them what they were doing wrong and they were quite thankful, we don't talk but we always acknowledge eachother when we meet.

spoken like a guy who still cries in the shower about every negative interaction he's ever experienced
