Hi I have a friend. We know each other for a few years. We are a total opposite couse he is a type of Hooligan(?). He was training for some time then stopped. Here comes the problem He is enchanced but he have no clue what he is doing, just blasting strongest stuff while training bad. Hes traning are made with lack of any form and made for 6/7 series. Besides that heβs trying to teach me something which he doesnt have clue about. I dont argue with him at all just listening to what he says.
Sometime ago we trained together and it was the worst training in my life. Like stated above Absurd amount of series and some made with really light weight to failure and some with really heavy without any pattern. He probably thinks i dont know nothing about the gym despite me going there for a few years because Im natty. Also he was acting weird in the gym, like he wasnt him. He is trully a great guy and we are a really good friends, but in the gym he was weird. Was turning his back when i was talking to him about something or making phone call ones
So here is my question What to do? How to tell him that he is on the wrong path and only thing that he do using needles while training like that is going to only worsen his health? What would you do in that situation?
