Why do so many gym trainers give terrible advice to beginners?

How many gym rats or trainers on Reddit actually answer beginners with logic and real guidance?

I see so many people replying with their own routines, their bodyweight, their bench press numbers, or what worked specifically for them… but barely anyone adapts their advice to the beginner’s actual level.

Bro, a newbie doesn’t care about your 225 bench or your advanced split routine. They need someone with experience and common sense who can simplify things, personalize the advice, and explain the “why” behind it.

Do you think most fitness advice online is too ego-based instead of beginner-focused?

How many gym trainers actually know what they’re teaching?

Real question. How many coaches truly organize training programs properly, stay updated with new training methods, understand nutrition, recovery, biomechanics, progressive overload, etc... instead of just making people do random exercises?

I feel like a lot of trainers just repeat the same routines for everybody without understanding the science behind it. No periodization, no adaptation, no real structure.

Do you think the fitness industry has too many “copy-paste” trainers nowadays?
