The Know-it-all

ad

Every gym has one. Usually a dude, can't do much, but likes to hand out unwanted advice. Critique form, show you what he does, stands around and talks a lot, takes the top supplements. Shows you some weird lift that isolates some muscle you don't give a shit about. Spots you with hands on the bar when you tell him not to touch it. Knows someone that can do a lot more than you. And he used to be a lot bigger until he got hurt.

And he really wants to be your friend. Is it me? It's him, right?

Gotta change my gym time. That's my rant.

I had to change my gym time for this reason. Identical to your situation, older guy, I feel bad not talking to him cuz he's nice but he goes on 20 minute rants in between my sets. He literally talks even if I have my headphones in and blasting. He know's a lot about a lot and tries to preach everything from debt management, form and supplements when I clearly know a lot more than he does about the work out related topics haha. I try to go at odd times to miss him.

Lmao. Yea it's him bro he gets around a lot. Prolly one or more at every gym. Best thing to do is to tell him that you really don't nor want his advice. Ya it will hurt his Lil feelings and sounds alil mean but ain't like u wanna hang out with him after the gym. That's me anyway. Not gonna change my gym time because of me know it all. As a matter of fact after you tell him to piss off he might just change his gym time. Problem solved.
