How many of you guys actually deadlift with proper form? I've literally never seen a single person that wasn't on my schools powerlifting team lift over 3 plates perfectly...
>Perfect setup >Perfectly straight back through the entire lift >Double overhand grip >Perfect Hip Hinge >Entire body works a one to complete the lift
I got to 375lbs within 8 months of lifting and then after visiting snap city twice I actually researched and properly learned the movement. I just got done doing 3x3 at 245lbs with the above form and my entire body is fatigued beyond belief.
This leads me to believe that either Veeky Forums is in the extremely small minority or people are fibbing...
Good for you. You should lift enough that you dont lose perfect form but still produce an estimulus for your body to grow. You shouldnt ego lift.

There's no award in lifting for having the best form, if you're able to lift with perfect form all the time then you aren't pushing yourself properly, which probably explains why you are deadlifting 245 for triples.

Being obsessed with perfect form is retarded. a) because the most optimal yet still safe form is different for everyone b) you will stall your progress due to overthinking c) you will probably learn bad habits that hinder your ability to get stronger.
As lord rippleton said, perfect is the enemy of good.
Maybe I'm full of shit tho i dunno lol. Heres me deadlifting 250kg. Did it for 3 reps this week but didn't record it because there was too many people around and autism.
Carson Reed
I have great form, but whenever I do more than like 3 reps it begins to degrade, which is normal and fine.

Your form should be good when training, doesn't need to be "perfect" just don't hurt yourself. When you're making max attempts or competing, form isn't that important. Having some lumbar rounding in competition is no big deal. Lumbar rounding in training means you're training too heavy.
Jose Martinez
Nice. That dyel in the background who don't even look at you and drops the weight on the floor disturbs me tho.
Xavier Fisher
People without proper form are the dumbest people.
They only cheat their way to snapcity.
If you cheat your form means that you're not strong enough for the weight.
Carter Williams
Your form looks good to me

Mike Tuchscherer deadlifts over 800 pounds with absolute perfect form.
