i guess on the power clean it doesn't matter as much cause i odn't think they will injure themselves.
I don't know how bad the knees too far forward thing is. It's bad form in some type of squats, standard in others (olympic style front squat), i think!!! I'm defo no expert on squat form tho.
If your point was you knew someone was doing something that was going to injure them at some point would you say anything. I'm not sure tbh, if i was i'd phrase it very carefully.
If it was a semiunusual lift that gets done like a powerclean or snatch (unusual at my gyms) i'd probably say something as it would be pretty easy to strike up a conversation and it'd be different than trying to tell some huge dude benching that his form sucks.
Tough topic because an average gymgoer will have allsorts of stuff from mens magazines, his huge friend whose an expert and a load of other sources floating about, and a random in the gym will hardly come high up in the list i'd imagine.
