Am I wrong for not wanting to help out my mother and 2 other friends with their diet and lifting? I mean I don't know much, just the basics, but I know its more than what they do. They been bugging the shit out of me. My one friend though is listening to all these gym guys and I don't feel like wastnig my time after what he tells me. He talks about 4-6 different excercises for bis two times a week because they are laggin and thats what the big guys at the gym say to do. Blah blah blah, you know all the stuff I am talking about.....But here is how I feel. I know they won't listen to what I say and only follow it half assed. So I feel like why should I waste my time? Then when what I tell them isn't working they blame me. I guess Ii am sorta venting too.
 
no, i dont really think that there is anything wrong with feeling that way. but if they ask you for your advice, give it to them. if they ask why its so different, you tell them. then you tell them to do what they want...end of discussion...
 
My experience is you will do all the work providing the information AND IT WILL DO NOTHING for them. If they want to learn badly enough then they will learn on their own. Sads mean but they need to show initiative...not being spoon fed by you.
 
Its funny how everyone worries about thier bicep size, what about training legs as hard as possible to make your body use the natural test you have, everyone wants 21" inch arms but don't realize it takes about 25 lbs added to your frame to increase your arms by 1"...
 
I agree with everything Posted. I like helping people that actually want it. I'll admit, 90% of the time, any information given is never used, go figure lol.
 
Most of the time if I am asked a question about training or nutrition in person, I can tell by the way the person asks if they are trying to learn anything or just want to argue about something they may have read somewhere...
