Sorry, you still don't have it straight, but that is all good.
Thanks everyone for the input. As long as he just uses very light resistance, I think I'm going to go ahead and let him. We don't have a local gym, but I may be able to make arrangements to get him a few training lessons on form elsewhere. To clarify, yes, we are most certainly just talking about more of a toning thing than actual lifting.
Plus he will be running to get ready for cross country season. He has a serious love/hate relationship with cross country. So that will help too.
Useless Warrior pretty much nailed it on it being a confidence/esteem thing thing with him. Those are also code words for wanting to impress hot girls.
I am also going to look into exercises involving his body weight, which more than one of you have mentioned.
Thanks guys, it is much appreciated!
