I've had something similar happen with my girlfriend and it can be a tough balance. She has just recently taken an interest in working out more and teaching her how to push herself more has been just as important as actually teaching her how to do specific lifts.

I'm in the exact same boat. My feeling is that as they workout more they will realize how much more they can do as well as just getting used to the fatigue.
