The boys talk about how, when, and why we should use enforcers in the gym.

At first glance it would seem simple. You see someone going too hard and you implement pain upon them as a lesson.

In reality, it is much more nuanced than that.

You may well be just encouraging a culture of jerks because now they just think rolling hard is the way things are done. This is due to a lack of communication and it’s counterproductive to say the least.

The other thing we unintentionally do is come in as a “white knight” and basically tell someone that they can’t handle themselves. This is super condescending.

So, while it does feel good to exact justice on someone you feel is being overly aggressive to your teammates, it may not actually be a good idea....at least all the time anyhow.
