Is Your Form Actually “Wrong”? Understanding Coaching and Corrections in the Gym

In this episode, we talk about one of the most misunderstood parts of coaching: form correction. We break down why form isn’t simply “good” or “bad,” and why the spectrum of movement quality is much more nuanced than people think.

We also dig into when coaches should step in with corrections—and when it’s actually better not to. Plus, we explore the unintended impact corrections can have on members, especially those new to strength training, and why expecting perfect form after one demo is totally unrealistic.

If you've ever wondered why a coach does—or doesn’t—adjust your form mid-workout, this episode will give you some clarity.
