Well I look at his build and I think 'he's probably right'.
tehguldincalk
But then you see youtube fitbros who are also huge but can't do a proper squat for their lives
littlepete96
Moving arms a little bit forward during biceps curl makes more of the bicep work as it flexes the arm beside flexing the forearm
spicysenor
Some of these are basically "Don't use more weight than you can handle."
NotPapaEmeritus
Proper form is seriously the most important part of exercise, if you do it wrong you're getting nothing from it and might get really hurt
MoreAshyThanLarry
But I like to use too much weight so I can brag about it and pretend people care.

What does that last plank like excercise workout? Is that a plank style? Ab workout?

Okay ill admit, i did some wrong shit :_
tehguldincalk
Spoiler: Almost everyone does. That's why you start with light weight, to solidify form with minor risk.
bronypokey6918
Good idea. I just kinda started an all taco bell diet. Spoiler: didnt work well lol

All of these are non-important unless you have done this for many years.
ICheckSpellingAndSuch
How much effort does it take to maintain the correct posture?
doctorbees
For some people, lots of effort. Years of being at a computer have fucked my upper back and neck. Currently working on fixing it.
ICheckSpellingAndSuch
What I mean to say is, if you have the knowledge and no issues yet, why not take the effort of maintaining correct posture.
ghostys
This comment is so wrong it hurts. Correct form is pretty much the most important thing with lifting.
nemobla
Sure for big heavy compound lifts, like deadlift, squat or benchpress. But your wrist on cable bicep curls? You cant lift enough to hurt it.
ghostys
Theres no reason not to use correct form no matter the weight. I don’t understand why you would argue against correct form.
doctorbees
You can. I got tendinitis in my elbow and wrist from doing bodyweight exercises with bad form.

What exercise is he doing in #1?
analyticmonkey
That would be a Hammer Curl. The point he illustrates, is that you should not exceed 90 degree angle for that exercise.
vanel
As long as the elbow doesn't move I see no issue going past 90 degrees, I feel like he's not getting a full bicep contraction that way.
Cheekit
Would it be bad if he did?
YCMEHSFI
Not at all. Most pros use that exact same form. It's not like you're gonna diminish your gains by going past 90º
tehguldincalk
It wouldn't be "bad," just less effective. A lot of workouts require you're range of motion to be in a specific range 1/2
tehguldincalk

tehguldincalk
fuck off, me
tehguldincalk
in order to stay in the "flex zone" (idk, thats what i call it). It's the range in which your muscle reaches max tension, which maximizes 2
tehguldincalk
growth. But, it depends on if your goal is growth. If you're cutting, you might want a larger range of motion to make the muscle 3
undungubungu
It wont hurt you, but the movement becomes less "clean" the more you pull it up there. Lots of pro lifters do that though, so im not sure.
analyticmonkey
Pff, fuck if I know. I think it's because when you lift above the 90 degree point, gravity resistance decreases, and you get less out of it
ghostys
That doesn’t really make sense since it cant do anything but add more to the curl.
analyticmonkey
I agree. There's more movement, and full flex of the muscle. Plus, my buddy used to make me clench my fists at the end. It had good results.
StuntManPat
I think it would help more to see him doing the actual motion

Dislocated my shoulder doing #5 incorrect form, fastest I ever dropped 30kg and I'm lucky I didn't bash my skull in.
GreekTrojan
Shoulders are the easiest muscle to F up with modern exercises (technique and overuse). You want to check form for all those movements.
ImpersonatingOfficerBnard
Like in the picture? What's wrong with bringing the weights closers as u press upward?
itsallinyourmind
Nothing, his don’t touch because he’s a wise dude. If you’re smaller, they’re gonna touch
andoselpantos
Keep the weight directly over the base(shoulder) for stability, your shoulders don't touch so neither should the weights.
ImmaDoodad
With heavy weights, you're more likely to hurt your hands and be unbalanced by the impact if they touch.

Hey posture guy, could you do some with bodyweight exercises, pls?
zerothealien
Thats one thing that bugs me at the gym, when someone trys to give me pointers as they are doing it wrong. Im fat, not stupid.
zerothealien
Was in wrestling and boxing my senior year. My coach would litterally hit you for doing your sets incorrectly, you learn quick.
IAmNotAVeryCreativePerson
I thought I did all exercises right too, but you'd be surprised. Tbh I don't mind pointers, they'll save your time and potential injuries.

pres2pond
After seeing just one gif, I'm pretty resolved to NEVER EVER get on the leg press. I'll do leg day some other way.
GreekTrojan
Most people, correctly, will tell you to squat. Its a bit hard to get the technique right but very safe once you do.

I used to lock them while doing calf exercises on the leg press,I cringe every time I remember how lucky I was to not snap my legs.

GreekTrojan
Half of them aren't, just not optimal. The ones with the impact marks are though, those prevent joint injuries.
Cerinna
Yeah all the difference there is how much impact you're getting from your exercise.
Invada
Yeah, some of these so called "correct" lifts are only relevant if you apply large amounts of weights. But unless you truly know what..
Invada
.. you are doing, you should obey the guidelines these kinds of posts set. Especially be carefull with using too much weight.
ghostys
You should focus on proper form, that way when you can move up to a higher weight you wont hurt yourself.
Invada
Exactly
SquishyWubbles
You hit the nail on the head. Posture is always important though, even with low weight.

It's just important not to get all your info on what is the correct way from an imgur post. And even respectable sources can have errors as>
