I've only started and am afraid of falling and looking retarded at the gym so I use machines becuase of the failsafe systems in place.

Trust me, you look more retarded doing machines then failing compound lifts. Just ask some big guy to help you and they will be glad to help.

So, do you just go up to someone and say, "you're a big guy"?

Watch videos, start light, focus on form.

If you give a fuck what "we" think, just know we're judging you more for using machines than we do for using babyweight.

I've never liked machines because it throws balance out of the room, but this is my own interpretation of why I prefer dumbbells/barbells on everything. What's /fit/'s reason for hating the machines?

I tried that and that guy thought i was gay, so i stopped asking people for help
