Dead lifts are a staple for a reason.
you may as well have posted "I have bad form in the gym and don't know how to do a deadlift"
Doesn't matter what style it is, if you're not doing them you are missing out on one of greatest full body movements.
Don't be afraid of the hinge.
Most people are stronger in the anterior but lack posterior chain strength, this makes you imbalanced and actually MORE susceptible to injuries.
You maybe stepped up to a barbell once and tried a conventional deadlift and found you didn't have the mobility or ability to nail it down, instead of regressing the movement, you gave up on it. TSK Tsk tsk. Pure weakness.
