Fr gym bros tend to be super wholesome to newcomers if you ask for advice. Not all of them, for sure, but I've had good luck.
Absolutely. Everyone started somewhere, vast majority of the time everyone at the gym is rooting for you. And the people who aren't are probably not worth respecting enough to care at all about their opinion
it can be scary to talk to strangers at the gym, but I've had nothing but good experiences asking for help whether it's form checks, spotting, asking to work in if the equipment you need is being used (help them load/unload their weight if you do this!), or even asking for help finding some weights or equipment (i wasn't sure if the gym I was at had 2.5lb plates, asked, dude helped me look between his sets and found some). Of course there are always the occasional assholes, but I think they're pretty rare, especially if you're not an asshole first
you're essentially asking somebody to talk about their hobby, so it makes sense
