Some gyms have these “enforcers” and are into this sort of thing. I hate that so much.

Not everyone needs humbling. And I think that’s the point that people here are missing.

If someone walks in and is calm, respects the fact that the trained person has something they don’t, and so on… even as a skeptic they’ll be relatively fine, and won’t get “wrecked” in most places, at least not on purpose.

It’s the guys that walk in thinking they’re about to roll over everybody with their big muscles that get rocked. But they usually end up being great people; just that finding out how much you don’t know is extremely humbling, extremely fast.

And I respect that a lot of people don’t believe it. I honestly didn’t myself. I get that; I’m not trying to convince you.
