We are learning specific form in various lifts; many of the lifts have certain protocol to follow for the lifts to count.
For instance, in the squat, the rep does not count unless the hip joint is below the knee joint. In the bench press the bar must touch the chest for the rep to count. Also in the bench the spotter may not touch the bar or the rep does not count. In the push-press the arms must reach a lockout position. In the deadlift the hips and knees must lockout while maintaing a straight, athletic back.
Why are these standards and protocols important to our class?

Performing lifts through the full range of motion is always important because at different points of the lift, different muscle groups are being used. The body likes to develop all muscles in unison and when you do not perform one lift to the standard, you will be giving a certain area a break and not working it. When this happens at lower weights and you continue to do it while you get to higher weights, the problem will only worsen and injury may occur. When one muscle group can carry one portion of the lift easily and another can't carry it at all, there is a much greater risk of injury.

The purpose of a standard is to make it the same everytime. In weight lifting, the standard way to lift is the right way to lift. When not lifting correctly, the lifter can not get the full range of motion and miss out on certain muscles, form a habit of doing the lift wrong, and worst of all, greatly increase the riskof injury.by following these standards, we can lift correctly every time giving us a better and safer workout

The standards/protocols are important because you could injur yourself from doing lifts incorrectly.
-Conrad Austen
Those standards and protocols are important to our class because without them, the student will not gain as much strength or knowledge. If you are doing an exercise wrong, then you will either not be getting stronger, or you could even be hurting yourself. The standards help everyone to do the lifts the way that they are intended, and they help prevent injuries.

These protocols are important to our class because it is necessary in order to work all the appropriate muscles at once without issolating some and not working others. By following these protocols you will get stronger in all areas, become a better athlete, prevent injurys, and more.

It is important that we know this so that we can complete the lift and get stronger. In this we do not isolate one muscle, instead we use a group of muscles. We also go through the full range of motion because it is safer for your body to do.
-Mitch Rampp
Using proper form and going through the full range of motion are very important to our class. Adhering to these principles engage a number of different muscles that would otherwise not be incorporated. This helps to build more functional strength and prevent injury as well.
Standards and protocols are important for the athlete to get good form and perform the repetition safely. If you have good form, then there is less of a chance of getting an injury but more of a chance of gaining more muscle. It is important not to get bad habits when lifting.
-Steven Rubin
Using the correct protocols and standards while you lift are very important. Using correct form can benefit you the most. If you are not doing the entire lift then you arent getting a good workout. Also if you dont follow the correct standards then you could end up getting hurt.
