>Don't do squats and deadlifts the shearing and compressing loads will destroy your discs
>Don't benchpress it'll destroy your rotator cuffs and shoulders
So...
WTF am I supposed to do? Everyone is telling me to avoid these exercises but every lifting program includes them.

>Who's saying this?
A lot of my Dad's friends are ex-BB and powerlifters, amateur and pro. A lot of them are injured, and this is what they told me.
I'm seeing it parroted online too.
The risk of injury just seems too high, both sudden and over time.

>Every movement, even unloaded, "risks injury."
Yes but some are way worse than others.
Like yeah I might injure myself doing rows or get shin splits from running but it doesn't compare to the sort of injury you might get from a bad deadlift or squat
It's like anyone getting injured doing them always seems to get injured really, really bad AND injury seems more like a "when" than a "if" if your doing them consistently
>>
>>77279748
Injury from weightlifting, even including all the stupid egolifters, is far, far less than any other sports' injuries.

People don't "just" get injured eventually, they injure themselves ego lifting, keep lifting on the injury, and THEN, after a long time, push it too far and fail catastrophically. Weightlifting is kind of too much fun, too addicting like that.

Following a proper program and not being stupid solves 99% of problems, the rest is genetics. I mean the lifts are designed to be failable.
>squat
Drop the bar, or go down onto safeties
>deadlift
Drop the bar, controlled if you cant otherwise just bend forward.
>bench
Set the weight down on the safeties. Make sure they're high enough you don't smash the bar into your chest anyway.

Now if you want fearporn go look up injuries from skiing, football, basketball, the other football, whatever's popular in your area. All of them per-capita-mog weightlifting.

>>77279767
What about spinal/disc compression?
That shit is cumulative and you don't feel it until the disc is proper compressed
>>
>>77277673
4pl8 rounded back deadlift isn't much, and you won't get to 5pl8 with bad technique
>>
>>77280523
Spinal compression is fearmongering by people who don't know how to squat/deadlift, if you don't know how to then don't.

It's riskier if you round your back forward or over-arch it backwards which puts more pressure on one side instead of evenly distributing it. Properly engaging your core helps your ribs, that attach to your spine, distribute a good amount of weight to your chest and abs. People load on more weight before they can properly handle the weight, get injured and then blame the exercise because they're scared to be seen with less than 100 lbs on the barbell

My fellow anons, I've been researching ecdy for a few days and let me save you the trouble because I think this compound has been severely misunderstood.
It's a plant steroid working through estrogen receptor beta meaning zero androgen activity, no balding, no ballshrinking, none of that shit.
WADA funded a human study where already trained guys gained 2kg lean mass in 10 weeks then immediately put it on their monitoring list. Separate rat study showed it outperforming Dianabol AND a tren derivative at equal doses. Not matching. Outperforming. There's also a newer sarcopenia study with sedentary patients showing muscular benefits with a more controlled dose, meaning it works without even training.
2kg lean mass in trained guys in 10 weeks is basically impossible without extreme genetics or steroids, and if they had those genetics they would've already had the muscle before the study. It works, simple as.
Now why does everyone say it doesn't? Two reasons. First, a 2025 study found a popular brand contained less than 0.1% of claimed dose. You're buying chalk and blaming the compound. Second, it's fat soluble, every retard chugging it fasted with water absorbed basically nothing.
You don't even need 200mg, studies showed results at around 40-48mg actual verified dose. Problem is you never know if your pill has 5mg or 200mg and nobody in the studies controlled for how they took it or with what food.
Take it mid fatty meal. Cyclodextrin complexed versions increase bioavailability 3x but are hard to find with actual verification.

TLDR ecdy works but the supplement industry is essentially committing fraud and most people are taking it wrong

You can even argue that some of the results are equal or worse since despite the miniscule increase the deviation/margin of error got worse meaning the athletic freaks in the trials got worse results while the newbs got better since their progression is already guaranteed no matter what
And most of the linked trials and studies have supplement companies conflict of interest.
Im convinced epidemiology is solely a thing to swipe conflict of interest in individual trials under the rug

It was "argued", just read the discussion of analyzed results.
>meaning the athletic freaks in the trials got worse results while the newbs got better since their progression is already guaranteed no matter what
that one, you can't infer from those studies

Yeah I snapped my collarbone and couldn't move my right arm for 2 months.

Avoid all moving it, it will take longer to heal. Get some vitamin K and vitamin D, plus calcium.

I recall spending my days lying in bed watching One Piece at my mothers place. In retrospect it was a good time but I was in constant anxiety that it would never heal properly or I would lose strength. Now I'm strongest I've ever been and the bone feels fine

Fellas my wife is about 300 lbs if I had to guess. 5'9 and 2X shirts. I've been really stumped about how to bring up the topic because she had a lot of shit happen to her since she was a kid related to this and it drives her to tears. But an opening finally presented itself and I pushed into a discussion. I am going to put her on weights, calisthenics, and couch to 5k to help her burn calories and raise her metabolism with muscle mass. I'm kind of astounded at how she can be this size with the concerningly little she eats some days. But then her period approaches and it is like Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde, so I guess it does even out. I just love her and want her to be healthy and happy. I told her I will only help her get fit if she also gets counselling for the mental stuff. Any advice on either the PT side or the spiritual side of this?

You really aren't eating enough despite whatever you think. Feeling full doesn't mean you've eaten enough to bulk. You just have to be consistent and eat high calorie foods
