You will never truly get over a deadlift injury. It will nag and pester for the remainder of your days
Oh, I hear ya. I don't ever go over 315 with deads. I actually stick around 225/275 for 12 reps. And I don't set it down completely. Let the 45's touch the mat barely, back up. Slow and controlled.

by bodybuilding I meant "bodybuilding" AKA look good for the summer and the ladies.
Fuck unpopular in anything. You gotta do what suits your body type and constitution. Nothing wrong with that. It shows intelligence!
Not good news, i think its a herniated disc too...i was only warming up with 225 when i did it, 455 is my 1rm
Join the club. I havent had surgery. I dont plan on it either. I ride out the "flair" ups and deal with it. Guys give me shit about not dead lifts. But nothing is untrue about what I say. If they ever have the misfortune of dealing with this life long injury to the extent I have. Their tune would change I promisetubesox said:
That blows.
I am in my mid forties, I have lighten up on the weights (most days). I decided to slowed things down and go more for the stretch and contraction of the movement. It has help with nagging injuries (delts/knees).
When it gets manageable again do back twists and bridges and stretching exercises for the lumbar. It helps alot cuz some times I cant even watch tv without being in pain
Its just gotten managable ..been foam rolling, ill give it a try
Some times I have my girl walk on my back and relieve the pressure. That works too.
Im hoping to see a chiropractor and get this thing worked out

@tubesox Yea thats not good. You A. have to shut down completely or B. Go find a pain clinic and a Dr. who specializes in back and get a cortisone shot. I have been there you keep going it will progressively get worse. I messed up once and went on Norcs for 3 months continued to go about life as usual that was a bad idea.
Its been about 2 months and feels okay now, was able to do powercleans yesterday

I forgot you just started to become an old man
. I t happened the first time to me int my early 30's then it seemed like I would reinjure it again 3-4 years later but each time the window on how long it was before injuries decreased and recovery took longer. I am now around to 1 injury a year and 4-6 months recovery. So need less to say I dont squat or dead anymore. I am very careful putting dumb bells back and I always stretch before any strenous exercise or sports. It sucks Tube you will be fine just remeber you are getting older. Sometimes on cycle we forget that shit and when you come off you jack yourself up.

I always go atg when doing squats because it feels good but to be honest I wish I could just go parallel. Atg makes it hard to get into a rhythm and keep constant tension on my legs as oppose to parallel, but Parallel required too much attention for me
I forgot you just started to become an old man
I'll never grow up!

@gr8whitetrukker for arguments sake what is so wrong with working out to look good and not care what your numbers are on the big lifts? I feel like goals are more important them you're making them out to be
