Why get stronger if it can increase the risk of getting hurt? Logical reason?

[ThinkAndGrow]

I've taken kre-alkalyn in the past and gained a lot of strength in a short period of time, although I don't necessarily remember gaining mass (although I was eating the same amount of calories for six months at the time). My questions is, even if I know taking creatine or kre-alkalyn will help me pump more iron, is there even a point of lifting more weight not knowing how much more I can do and risk injuring myself? Won't I have the same gain if I'm eating a lot?

Food > creatine, if thats what your asking. If you get stronger I think you can avoid injury more so by being fit. But you get stronger and lift heavier weights in a not safe manner it can lead to injury.

Your post makes no sense. Are you talking about gaining "weight" from eating being the same as the weight you gain from muscles getting bigger from increased workload in the gym?

No, what I'm saying is if I lift heavy and eat big without supplements I'll grow anyway. Even though I can lift more by taking kre-alkalyn, does that mean I can build more muscle? I just imagine that the only difference in taking a supp is that I lift stronger..

Because being stronger decreases risk of injury?

You're giving supplements too much credit

If I can squat 300lbs for 8 reps of 3 sets without supplementation but can squat 305lbs for 8 reps of 3 sets with supplements, I would use the supplements lol Is there an increased rate of injury? Well, there's no official studies on it, but I'm guessing the 5lbs difference in weight lifted wouldn't make my form go to sh!t all of a sudden. And I haven't taken a supplement that has all of a sudden increased my lifts by a significant amount.

Wow for 5 pounds you'd take supplements? I'm serious I worked out great for 6 months could hardly curl 30 pounds started taking kre-alkalyn within a few days I was curling 40-45 pounds easy

hmmmmm go on..............

There's two ways you get injured: Freak accidents, and overreaching. If you're scared of getting hurt, then just watch TV.

[StuffofDreams]

Weight training injury stats are low when compared to other sports.

You're making it sound like an injury is unavoidable. Watch your form and don't lift too much too fast and you'll decrease your chances of hurting yourself.

It's a lose-lose situation.

Get too massive and you're more likely to bump into things thereby putting you at risk as well.

Perhaps don't let your ego do the lifting for you and you won't injure yourself

life is full of risk you need to ask yourself which ones you want to take. As long as you train smart(spotter, proper form) you will be fine.
