I'm tired of instructors coming up to me and say don't do that, don't do this, what are you doing, don't go that low, don't lift it from inches away yadda yadda yadda..

When I went to a gym out in Denver, this trainer about bit my head off for squatting PARALLEL! Not even ass-to-the-grass. "I never recommend going past 85%...I want my clients to have function in their knees when they're older." I just rolled my eyes. Get an MP3 player and practice your scowl...
 
they have their reasons
we have ours

most people would say doing GM will fuck you up...
or squatting ass to grass will fuck you up
and other urban legend of BB

actually...everything IS dangerous...if done unproperly...that is why we have forms of positioning and stuff.

perhaps they have never tried it before...

and yes, admittedly, it is scary to squat big when you don't have someone assisting you from behind. assisting in the sense of just being there and not helping till you say so..

scared of lockouts x.x

Yeah...it really frustrates me...I look at the people around me and pick who I want to take advice from by how they're lifting or running...not but what certification they have...certified trainers aren't always the best...I'm lucky to have two great bosses who know what they're talking about and a gym full of members who have experience in the areas I need help in...
