    You can get injured doing anything physical. It's about doing the movements correctly. Powerlifting is actually very safe. At meets, you have 3 spotters for bench and squat. Deadlift, you have a spotter behind you in case you fall back.

    Power lifting is cool just be careful, that's an easy way to get injured
