Narrative:

We were enroute to ZZZ on an IFR flight plan. I was the safety pilot on this flight. We were cleared to climb to 7;000 feet. As we approached the target altitude; our rate of climb was excessive; approximately 1;000 feet per minute. I called out a warning at 500 feet to go; 300 feet; 100 feet. I told the pilot flying our rate of closure was excessive at 300 feet to go. Pilot flying flew through our target altitude. I called out 100 feet high; 200 feet high; you're going to bust 300 feet. Pilot flying lowered the nose and descended to our assigned altitude.I often fly with the pilot flying and had not seen this action before. The pilot flying asked me to fly with him. Due to the covid situation; pilot flying had not flown for a while and wanted to brush up his skills. We flew 6 approaches; airway intercepts and holds.
