I was about 13 years old the first time I bent EMT with my uncle. We were doing a renovation at a church; watching him bend EMT and then getting to do it MYSELF was a truly religious experience.

There are a few things in the trade where workmanship really comes into play, such as copper pipework, making up a panel, or fabricating ductwork. Bending EMT belongs on that list. While most commercial electricians do it every day, HVAC techs and installers only run into an application where we do it on a rare occasion. When that does happen, it's good to have a basic understanding of how it works. In this video, Juan from The Air Conditioning Guy channel goes over some quick basics on bending EMT.
