Why the fitness industry hates ERIC KIM

Eric Kim’s gravity‑defying 547 kg (1,206 lb) mid‑thigh rack pull at only ≈72 kg body‑mass doesn’t just set a jaw‑dropping number—it torpedoes a whole raft of long‑held “rules” about strength, range of motion, body‑size limits and even social‑media authenticity. Below are the biggest fitness myths his lift blasts apart, with the science and industry chatter to back each one up.
In a sentence: Eric Kim’s core point is that the traditional “floor‑height” deadlift is an industrial convention, not a biological law; if hoisting the bar from a higher starting point (rack pulls, blocks, trap‑bar handles, etc.) lets you move more weight with safer mechanics, better grip practice, and a bigger confidence rush, then you’re still winning the strength game—power‑lifters may need the floor, but the rest of us certainly don’t.
