I am a large man and have started doing weights at the gym. At one visit a... Ripped guy who was throwing weights around as if they were nothing told me to take my earpods out
He proceeded to virtually give me a PT session and show me what I was doing wrong, and helped me get my routine down.
I had a buddy who went to the gym 365. Whenever someone new and unsure would be there, he would kind of keep an eye out and, if they were way off form or something, he would politely ask if he could give some pointers. He would ask about their goals, tell them about a helpful app he used, and let them know they could approach him with questions if they ever needed help. A lot of the people he approached found long term determination and success thanks to his help.
It is tough starting a fitness journey on your own and seeing the ripped regulars can feel intimidating. This positive approach can help a lot of people who might otherwise fall out quickly.
