Lower muscle rounds
Took my son with me today for the first time.
He's been working out in the garage every day besides when I tell him he needs rest so I thought I would give it a shot.
It went well. He didn't talk to me besides asking basic questions on how to preform an exercise or how much weight to use. That's a big reason I'll probably take him back lol.
So I've trained a lot of people. Not thousands but a lot and I've watched a lot of people train just being in the gym. Very rarely do you see someone using good form and rarer then that do you see them actually targeting the muscle they're trying to train.
We started with legs and I noticed during the machine Squats his form was almost flawless. Weight back on his heels and not forward on his feet. Slightly below parallel and back smashed up into the pad. This was without a word from me.
Leg curls. Again, toes were pointed straight out he wasn't bouncing up and down on the pad with his hips. The biggest thing there was he bottomed out the machine a couple times and adjusted his speed and depth so he stopped just short of that. Smooth reps and constant tension.
Preacher curls, same. I had to shorten the reps so he didn't fully extended but, I could see the muscle firing.
Rope extension. Here's where I knew he had "it" he's never done these before. I show him how, he takes a couple sets to get it figured out. Third set his set up isn't perfect but it's close. I touch his triceps to see what's going on..... Firing on all cylinders.
So, I might have a training savant on my hands lol.
