But today I decided to be more proactive. I'm using the leg press and I notice a young guy on the hack squat. He's rolling forward on his toes and I see his heels leave the ground; I also notice his legs are really unstable. He wasn't doing a lot of weight. When he was done with his set, I contemplated saying something. Nearly did. Then didn't. Then did. I suggested to him that he change his foot position and focus on pushing through his heel. He actually seemed interested in what I was saying; he even asked me as he was setting up for his next set whether it looked right to me. I suppose I was expecting a different sort of response - ie "Oh, thanks" and then the guy doing the same thing. After his set, I asked him if he noticed a difference and he said "definitely." He then thanked me.
Not sure what made me offer the advice; as I've written, I'm very quiet and focused in the gym, but I do watch what others do.
