That new guy who tried to tell me I was running my suction line wrong
Some kid fresh out of the trade school in Baton Rouge came up to me on a job last spring and said my suction line angle was costing me 15% efficiency. I let him show me his way on the next cut and damn if he didn't pull up 40% more material in the first hour. Who else has had a rookie teach them something that actually worked?

I had a 19 year old kid show me I was gripping my barbell wrong for deadlifts back when I was training at a commercial gym... felt pretty dumb when my back pain cleared up in a week after I switched to his mixed grip.

Read an article that said most people grip the bar way too narrow for deadlifts and that alone can mess up your back. Always thought the mixed grip was just for people with weak hands but apparently it helps with alignment too.
