Sorry for spoiling the thread.

I've been here almost from the very beginning (originally on another name) and it never ceases to amaze me how quick people are to criticise what they clearly don't understand. I thought Elite was about learning....just seems there are a lot who want to be the teachers when they should be students. Shame really because there are some great people to learn from here.

Anyway, will try not to lower the tone again.

Whoah! Its geting hot in here! I almost tripped on the tension. It doesn't matter man, people are going to have differing opinions, some people believe that you should stick to perfect form no matter what, and others think, as long as it gets the job done, whats wrong with it (especially for complete beasts like that). The dude could prob lockout if he so wished, that kinda weight could prob crush your elbows, as in jam them, if he locked out completely, whereas keeping his elbows bent the weight is evenly distributed throughout the mechansim (his arm). In my physics class we had a experiment fairly similar where we took a bar with tension cables running all around and had a joint set between it and anoher bar, weight was placed on top. When the bar was straight the tension on the joint was at its highest, whereas when it was bent it was distributed better meaning less newtons per cm. The arm will work much in the same manner. This worked the same when the weight was hung from the bars as well, but this can't be applied to a deadlift because the give will not be in the arms but in the back. In that lift the arms merely act as cables in which the tension increases but the pulley itself is the lower back and inevitably the upper back as well.

I hear yah, I've learned so much in the last month on here that I haven't learned in my 5 years of weightlifting so far. I've changed my entire workout, and gotten completely different supplements I never would have even heard of. Also I've been inspired to clean up my diet and soon I'll be keeping track of every calorie.
