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

sorry about your injury
take it slowly and transition to heavier ones

How long does your workout session lasts for

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.

It’s cool to work out…..U will av to do this alone as I am addicted to jogging @todd
