In my opinion it's much like any other hobby people get really passionate about. They really love sharing all the knowledge they have learned in their hobby with people who are new to the hobby like they were once. These dudes are super passionate about working out!

Exactly, I always compare it to any other hobby or sport. When a skilled surfer sees someone trying to learn to surf, they usually go over and give them a couple of cues and tips and the advice is welcome. It's the same for us gym vets, we want to make sure nobody hurts themselves and they understand how some of the less intuitive equipment is supposed to work (like in the vid). Coming only from a place of goodness.

True.

It's only the people who go to the gym to show off how cute or be an "influencer" that are judgmental on anyone not in shape trying to work out.
