@veroch Nice man! That's awesome!
I want to get started going to the gym but I haven't gone since I was in HS & never like, seriously. While I know obvious stuff like don't lift stuff with your back, I don't really know what I'm doing and couldn't afford a trainer to get me actually rolling so I end up just not doing it.
It's possible, at least for me, not speaking the same language might actually alleviate some of the awkwardness
But for real, the only thing worse than not doing something correctly & getting hurt or even just wasting my time, would be having someone (or several someones) being like "look at this dumbass"
