To help or not to help?

[Tblock1]

I am totally differant, in my mind Im competing with everyone else my age or my experience. I cant help it but Im super competetive when it comes to muscles, strength, weights and that sorta stuff. And if I gave someone help and they got bigger and/or stronger than me I would be super pissed off unless they were an adult, but you said you would be proud, I just dont think like that lol. I take pride in being the only person my age who takes weightlifting as seriously as I do (i think im the only one anyway...) and I wouldnt want anyone else to take that away by being harder working or bigger or stronger.

lol yes lifting isnt as big over here as it is in the US

Yeah I kind of lean towards EM's perspective......testosterone is raging and I'm pissed off at everyone and want to kick everyone's ass at my school However I do love giving advice to people and would be happy to see people get stronger (maybe not stronger than me though)

I don;t think you should offer advice: they won't respect it. Thats just the way human nature is. We want to hear what we want to hear. Anything different from that is B-A-D so there is no way they would respect you. Now, there are exceptions to this, but let these exceptions come to you for advice.

90% of the advice i give is ignored... or possibly deemed as 'too much work'...

but the ones that try my suggestions and get results make it worth it...

Look into becomming a personel trainer if u really enjoy that... Sounds like it's right up ur ally...

Anyways ya u already k ow my view, I'm keeping my mouth shut unless I'm
asked or it's a close friend... Weired tho jus last week a kid came up to me an asked how to get his arms bigger, how many sets n all that... I told him stop doing curls n hit ur back supper hard I told him I do about two sets a month of light curls an his eyes lite up and I think I got his wheels turning and he might actually go somewhere with what I told him.... Hmmm who knows I dnt even remember what he looks like but it did make me feel good to give him some advise and he wanted it n appreciated it...

on another note... the last time i gave out advice and it was used... guy was doing cleans and i suggested he get his elbows up... well he did, and it gave him much more bar speed that he hit himself in the chin on his first rep trying it...
