I know Bytsi.....yesterday at the gym there were 2 people doing O/H squats with a broomstick. Both work with a trainer, but were working on their own yesterday. BOTH of them were doing them soooooo poorly, I wanted to say something soooo bad, but didn't want to offend. They had the broomstick overhead, elbows weren't locked, nor were their arms wide enough. And, worse yet, the broomstick was, as you said, about 12" in FRONT of them! No wonder they looked as though they were going to tip forward every time they attempted to squat! Just terrible!

THEN, there was a trainer training someone on the FSPP, believe it or not. I couldn't BELIEVE how wrong her instruction was to this poor person. No instruction on the front squat clean position, no mention of form....nothing.

THEN, another trainer was training his guy to CURL IN THE SQUAT RACK. No wonder people think it's OK at my gym....their trainer showed them to do it there!!

Drives me bonkers.....the "trainers" at my gym. I swear I could train better than them without any type of certification or specialized training!
