I wasn't being serious but I don't have any issues with curling in the squat rack.getting mad about curls in the squat rack really has nothing to do with "real life strength" though. The squat rack still exists...to squat in. You can't back barbell squat any other way with adequate weight...you can curl 100 other ways. If you can't curl more than the pre-made bars usually around 110-120lbs then don't curl in the squat rack.
Not to really entertain it but squatting increases your posterior chain strength...which is very helpful in life. As a soccer player it benefits me to squat. A strong posterior chain benefits speed.
I actually squatted in real life yesterday
Had my girl get on my shoulders so she could get a better picture of this endless sunflower field we came across.
