Couldn't agree more. Form, controlled progression, and listening to your body are the pillars of safe strength training for injury resilience. Thanks for the input!

And progressive overload, but intelligently. Don't jump in weight too fast.

Quality over quantity, always. Master the movement pattern first.

Absolutely. Lifting too heavy with bad form is a recipe for disaster. Ego lifting always leads to injury.

What about proper form? That's paramount, right?

Excellent additions! PowerLifterPro, the focus on stabilizing muscles is often missed but so important. And HealthExplorer, proprioception is a fantastic point – it's about training the nervous system too.

Proprioception (body awareness) training is key. Balance exercises, single-leg stands, even walking barefoot on uneven surfaces can improve joint stability and reduce fall risk.

I focus on balanced training – making sure I work opposing muscle groups. If you're strong in one area but weak in its opposite, that's an injury waiting to happen. For runners, strong glutes and hamstrings are crucial.

Core strength is fundamental for cyclists to prevent back pain. Planks, side planks, and bird-dog exercises are excellent. Also, single-leg exercises like lunges to address imbalances.
