Why is it easier to say lift with your back i stead of using your legs? Basically, why is it more common for people to use the wrong type of movement for tasks that increases their risk of injury?

To add onto what the other commenter said, it’s also because you just don’t notice when the *right* movement is easier – it’s just the way you’ve always done it. To answer a bit more of your question, it’s sometimes “easier” because you often use less muscles doing something with proper form (you wouldn’t use your stabilizer muscles as much), and so you get used to doing it the wrong way.
