    >Powerlifters have lower rates of back injury compared to general population and other sports.

      The problem is is that if you DON'T know what you are doing then yes, you can get your back fricked up. OP probably doesn't know what he is doing so he has a high chance of fricking up. OP, I would encourage you to get a physical trainer so they could examine and correct your form because the big 4 are important for a variety of reasons.

        To be fair, by the time you're lifting actual weight, you've had plenty of time to learn what's comfortable for you.

    You reduce body fat by not eating fatty. And you won't hurt yourself if you do them with proper form.

      I already went from 180 lb to 160 with diet. I look exactly the same because I still have all this fat and no muscle

        Ok good. You can use machines to help get you ready and work on specifics but squats are great. You can also do stuff with dumbells if you are scared of full on squats, even though you shouldn't unless you are doing a dangerous weight that you aren't ready for yet.

      And by not eating simple carbs such as sugar, those cause internal organ fat

    what are good accessories for the deadlift?
    back strength, keeping your back straight?

      You dont need a belt unless you are going crazy with weight. Just keep back straight. Start light until you get the motion. Film or watch self in mirror. You can also do other back excercises if you think yours is weak to work up to it.

    You won't frick up anything as long as you don't try to live moron amounts you are unable to. NEVER go for 1rms. That's literally it. You might still get the odd minor injury, who cares. Like that other dude stated you could actually be doing the best thing for your back. There's a reason why practically every single one of these horrific fail or pass-out videos are all about 1rms.

    Being autistic about form can be exaggerated, you can generally feel if you're doing something wrong. You just have to pay attention during each lift and nothing will happen - sort of like how you have to pay attention when you're driving a car.

    I've been losing weight (190lbs to current 163lbs) with compound lifts & light cardio. People say body recomposition is a meme but I swear i'm getting stronger and more defined.

    Never understood why people find this hard. Eat less and workout more, you'll look good eventually. You only risk injury if you have 0 knowledge of proper form and/or ignoring blatant pain signals (or you're 60).

    Then lower the weight, keep the form and do more volume. You got the form ingrained into your CNS as you stimulate the muscles to grow, spend the energy to shred. You don't do maximum effort sets every training, you don't risk shit if you don't do 1RM goodmorning squat and folded deadlift. And if that's not enough, you have the even lower risk variations - frontsquats, Romanian DL, Sumo DL. Fricked up joints are a meme. It's alway these fat gymbros that only train arms and chest that complain about back pain.
