Innocent, yet legitimate question... I have seen way too many bicep tears during deadlifting. I am simply wondering why is this happening? I mean, arms should simply be considered as hooks during the lift, as opposed to bending the arms to pull with them. I can see a forearms tear, especially if not wearing straps, but then again, I figure your grip would automatically give up and you'd jut drop the weight. But, in my opinion, bicep tears should not be happening. Any thoughts, other than poor form?? Just wondering, and for the sake of discussion (or edification).
