Disrespect to Trainer

Take Your Pants Off

So, last month I took some personal training sessions(around 8)(I obviously payed for them) then my personal trainer said to go off and follow the sessions.
I wanted my uncle to join for a long time and train me as he was a bodybuilder and won numerous competitions, but he was really busy so that could not happen.
Now he is free and he asked me if I was still up for it.
Now, my trainer is good but hes nothing compared to a bodybuilder and the advice and the intensity training one could do so I really want to train with him.
Problem rises is that if I go to the gym with my uncle and work with him, will this in any form show disrespect to my trainer?
I am stuck and I need some advice on how both parties would be okay with this.
Because if I say no to my uncle it will be disrespect to him, just 3 weeks ago I started training my own workout and my trainer saw me and asked why I was not following his workout, I managed to get away with it, by saying I was just warming up.

Trainers are used to seeing their advice fall on deaf ears all of the time. Don't sweat it.

You need a trainer to Man yourself up a bit.
Tell the trainer you have a family member who is going to train you and thank him for his help. Is it that hard?

I always thank him, every day.
I probably would not even tell him about my uncle helping me, if he just asks I will say hes giving me a hand with your workout schedule, you know helping me in the last sets in which I will struggle, because trainer cannot always be there for me.
Hopefully it all goes well, bringing my uncle possible in 2 weeks time.

You don't need to pay someone to count your reps unless you go over 10 and struggle including your toes into the equation.

No you got the wrong impression.
My trainer gave me a full body workout schedule and tols me the correct procedures on how to perform each ex.

Grow a pair you've presumably paid your PT for the sessions you've taken with him, you don't owe him anything else

The trainer will not bat an eyelid. He will just think you are now getting free training with a family member. Seriously you are over thinking this.

Your personal trainer doesn't give a toss. You paid him for your sessions end of story, it's business. You're not going from working for one mafia capo to another, there won't be any bloodshed over this.

Train with your uncle if he's a bodybuilder he will have a better understanding than most pt's.

Simple. Just tell him ( her ) what you want to do. Less work for the trainer. Can't see any objection unless you are doing something idiotic likely to injure you.

Trainers are hopeful that something we teach might come back on us

I don't think having 8 paid sessions with a trainer creates a legally binding marriage.

The only way to keep everyone happy is to never train again, and get fat.
