Yeh, it's a risk with deadlifts.

This is why I switched to only doing trap bar deadlifts a year ago.

Good work! I've stopped deadlifting because I feel like it frequently causes lower back pain (skill issue?) but there's nothing quite like picking up a ton of weight off the ground

It does, but I don't know what to do beyond that since I maxed out the bar 😂

How many lbs is this?

I’m so scared of beginning deadlifts in the gym cus I’m scared my back would just go off😂
I know it’s all down to form but still lol

Same! In my case I'll be on my way back to 330 lbs PR. I hurt my lower back 8 months ago 🥲

That’s awesome! How did you recover from your sprained wrist? I’m curious about what stretches or exercises helped. I’m struggling with a sprained wrist too.
