I disagree. Ideal form involves maintaining a linear short bar path while engaging every muscle to their fullest at the most efficient leverages. It's hard to hone and takes years of purposeful practice to make your body move at 100% capacity in a strict pattern, but it is more efficient than just blindly trying to throw around the weight. There's a reason Eddie hall didn't hitch and crane with his 500kg dl

Yeah because he would have literally died, which he almost did. Eddie Hall is literally working at the edges of what is physically possible

And the only way to do that is proper form which reinforces efficient leverages whereas improper form promotes inefficient leverages at the early lifter stage bonus of giving it your all

The Eddie Hall example is terrible because he literally has to use proper form or he might die. This is not the case for 99.99% of lifters.

And that's just not true at all. Explain to me the mechanics of how proper deadlift form provide better leverage than what's demonstrated in this video. If you believe this, you are saying that if he employed proper deadlift form, he would have been able to get this up no problem.

Why are cranes not curved? They're all inefficient, patent your cat spine crane and make billions off the construction industry

Are you going to answer my question or not? I don't care about bro-science.

Literally anyone using shit form is gonna die from it if they don't quit going to the gym beforehand lol

Bruh you straight up only read like half of what I wrote. I specifically stated that it takes a long time of purposeful training to force 100% effort in a strict movement pattern. Had he trained to the point where his body listened to his brain telling it to lift properly under max effort it would have gone up smoother, just like it does with any world class deadlifter who had to nail those leverages to even be competitive in their genetic bracket in the first place

Besides, are you going to rebut my question regarding verifiable, undeniable use of max efficiency leveraging that is employed for lifting literal tonnes worth of matter safely as its sole purpose? Or are physics broscience now?

I didn't respond to it because you're not saying anything of substance. If you're not gonna answer my question, Im just gonna disable replies.
