I heard someone recently say on social media "I overheard a personal trainer telling their client what bad form someone was using and didn't go over to help!". Well as a PT myself, I constantly see lots of gym goers using incorrect or dangerous form or simply not getting the best from the exercise they are performing.
This is frustrating but what exactly is the PT supposed to do? Constantly ignore their paying clients to correct every mistake they see in the gym and not end up training their own clients? I don't think this is a realistic proposition. Instead of blaming the PT I would suggest every inexperienced gym goer book some sessions with a knowledgeable PT to at least learn the basics of training to get the most from their workouts and stay safe.
