I think it is more that everyone thinks that they know the proper form, so nobody would buy the magazine, even though it would help most people out.

If I saw a magazine and the title was, "Fix your form." or "You're not doing it right" or "You'll probably hurt yourself" I'd pick it up. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
