The Misconception of "Perfect" Form

Just giving some thoughts on perfect form vs "intentional" form!

While there are some foundational guidelines, most exercises may have more wiggle room than we may realize.

An example might be elbow flare during pushups. While 30 degrees - 45 degrees is often given as a form tip, other angles may not necessarily be "wrong." They have different purposes.

I don't necessarily mean this in a feel-good type of way. While there may not be bad or good exercises (maybe), there are better and worse exercises -depending on your goal! Sometimes far better or far worse.

With this in mind, there may also be some form tips that are good guidelines to follow - especially while we're starting. There may also be exercise forms that are technically okay but we don't really need.

Another example might be deadlifts. The cue is almost always to keep a fairly neutral back during deadlifts, but many people round slightly when pursuing higher numbers. This may work for them, but the intent is usually to maintain a neutral back.

Just sharing some examples of intentional form and how "ideal" technique might depend on our training or performance goals! Have a wonderful day.
