"if you don't get hurt lifting multiple times through

No. You can get big by following proper forms and not overtraining and getting enough rest. Other than soreness, you should be having no actual pain.

Of course, most people aren't perfect and will make mistakes in lifting and learn from those mistakes and get better. That might be what they're trying to say. I don't think they mean you should purposely try to hurt yourself by lifting too heavy and hurting yourself with improper form.

depends on how good you want to get. once you get to a high level, you've got to work really fucking hard to keep improving, and injuries are pretty inevitable at some point. if you just want to get healthy and look decent, then yeah you can do fine without pushing yourself to the point where you'll get injured.

nobody at a high level ever thinks that they're going to get hurt. like, mark bell never walks into the gym for a bench workout expecting to tear a pec, but sometimes shit happens when you're pushing really hard.

Can confirm. Am laying on floor with broken back right now

>you can't get strong unless you permanently make yourself weaker in some way

Just some retards senpai.

I'd like to believe this is true. I'm far from a powerlifter but I get nagging injuries from time to time where I gotta take a week or 2 off and let something heal.

That's only true in a general sense if you actually get to the point of being objectively strong. Shit is more likely to occur when you're beating yourself up with objectively heavier weights. The stronger you are the more care you need to take and the higher the likelihood of hurting yourself even if you don't do anything extremely wrong.

No a regular lifter not a faggot

Yes. Obviously not in the sense that hurting yourself will make you better, but if you're lifting hard, things like muscle strains/pulls, inflammation and tightness are inevitable.
