@ProfDippet There is a fine balance from using a heavier weight with not-so-perfect form from using a weight that is way to heavy and form goes really bad. You can see this easily, if the person looks like they are in control of the weight, they are. If the last rep or two are really hard and you want to use more body english that's fine.

@ProfDippet The truth is that you can use lighter weights and "strict" form and not get as much muscle activation from using a heavier weight and needing to use a little body english. This more of an advanced technique as an experienced lifter will be able to willfully contract their muscles better than a someone new. Also an advanced lifter can listen to their bodies better to see if something they are doing might cause injury.

@BJGally U think? I thought with lighter weight he wouldn't have to do the swinging.
Why is it better for you joints to have a little momentum?
Agree with your last part.

@ProfDippet Commenting on year old post? lol Its actually better for your joints to give a little momentum to the lift instead of a complete strain from an elongated position. Like a rolling start for a car. You see this move in every lift. Leg drive with a bench press, moving into a dead lift, ect. The only thing he does wrong that might hurt him in the long run is not extending his arms all the way out on the negative part which might shorten his bicep tendon and lead to a pull...MIGHT

@BJGally Sure, but still it is known as a bad idea for your joints,(or in this case, his back which is tlee2626's point I think. 30% training, 70% nutrition.

lifting weights will stunt my growth?

@BJGally: Heh, you nailed it!
I *try* to be rather strict on most exercises, partly because my right rotator cuff gives me a real headache. But the fact is, a great many freaky big motherfuckers built tremendous size with, at best, "loose" form on any number of exercises.
What the pencilnecks don't understand is that progressive overload's the bottom line. Cheat curling your way from 115 to 225 WILL build some serious biceps.

Wo ist das video wo er anboliker nimmt?
I like when people comment about poor form. Telling a man that his bicep curls suck when he has 21" arms is like telling a man that his jumping technique sucks as he is dunking on you.

Dude, you're a big guy but your training technique sucks. Those curls at the beginning were terrible.
