>people that think good form doesn't let you lift more weight

kek. the strongest strength athletes have good, efficient form. some might be a bit abnormal compared to the average joe, but they likely do it because it is safer and stronger for them or because they have funky body proportions (for example klokov's stance asymmetry and layne norton's squat)

>that guy in the gym who asks other people about there maxes to feel better

I laugh at you. Especially at people ego lifting more than I do just to fuck up their joints, while I have a better form with less weight and also look better

Don't be a jerk to newbies at the gym

What are you rambling about?

>>35362681
This

I ask people what their minimum is. It's a better judge of strength. You find your minimum by doing a lift for 50 reps. My squat minimum is 110 lbs. I bench 85 lbs minimum. The higher your minimum, the stronger you are. No one gets it tho. Maxes are stupid

what if we have cucked bodies from dumb military service? I got a pinched nerve in my back that likes to flair up like herpes, two torn maniscuses that I should probably get fixed eventually and other unknown stinging pains in my knees.

My minimum is 0 but i can do it for infinity. Am i doing it right?

>implying people shouldnt feel better if they are stronger

>>35362645
Also, look at Brian Shaw's deadlift. His stance looks stupid af but it works for him

My knees and left shoulder are fucked. My left arm doesn't straighten to the same length as my right, so bar bench is a little awkward. My knees make it so I can't squat with weight, but I can do light leg extension machines. I get 1500 usd a month for it, so I guess I can't complain.

>>35363755
You're doing it wrongly.
My max is infinity and I do one rep every 365 days.

No, that's a better judge of endurance, not strength.

>>35362775
Minimum of what? How is that not 50 rep MAX? Sounds retarded, by the way.
