As X said, for me, Deadlift takes the most concentration. I have a tweak in my lower back from a long time ago and it's easy to aggravate with deadlift if I'm not careful.

That is one reason I put the weight all the way down. I really need to keep my form perfect and if I hold onto the weight it's easier for me to lose it. Putting it down gives me that second to make sure everything is where I want it to be. Similar to what hardgain said, it's much harder to control the weight when it doesn't touch down, which is the very reason I DO put it down.

There are all sorts of exercises I am less strict on, but I can't fool around with deads. But I love them!

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
