Why is Rippetoe so highly lauded? He states that:
a) squatting with an arched back in order to break parallel will strengthen the back muscles
and
b) dropping the barbell on the eccentric phase of a Deadlift is for pussies who want attention.
is he just an old hick who can lift gud? i feel like his methods aren't safe.

I lifted without coaching for 15 yrs.
Won every DL meet I entered 7/7
Saw a papa Rip video, change my form according to his technique.
Snapped my shit with 40% of my max.
Haven't been able to DL in 2 months.
He is an overrated, theoretical mathematician only worshipped by traps
What's wrong with a)? Arched back just means
lumbar and thoracic extension, aka correct form.
What
How could following Rippetoe's recommendations cause you to snap your shit
what could you have possibly been doing beforehand
>Snapped my shit with 40% of my max
You are 100% lying and i want you to die.
Why did you take your trip off Trappy?
>a) squatting with an arched back in order to break parallel will strengthen the back muscles
Doesn't sound like a good idea
>b) dropping the barbell on the eccentric phase of a Deadlift is for pussies who want attention.
100% true
Haha idiot
Doing the eccentric phase of deadlift is 100% necessary, otherwise you are half repping
I'll take stuff that never happened for 500 Alex.
