I use it as a quick reference when I'm at the gym and having doubts about my form.

What resources do you use?

I like this one - Israetel isn't always my favorite, but he does strike me as extremely knowledgeable and with a sincere commitment to avoid the flood of pseudoscience that is the plague of the industry.

Be aware - this link isn't just the form cues, but if you follow each muscle group link, within each sub-article is a table with links to zero-fluff 30 second YouTube videos demonstrating form for a huge number of exercises. Cool shit.

Also agreed. He's a great resource, but you have to be aware that he's trying to make a living (which is totally fine). I also learned to ignore his non-lifting content.
