How I Fixed My Lower Back Deadlift Injury

1 year ago

back in 2019 i was on top of the world my strength was going up massively

i was getting heavier and bigger week on week hitting pr frequently

i was in one of those periods were everything just seems to be going right

but as you can probably guess from the thumbnail and title it all came crashing down

one late night at the end of a back session i said fuck it lets do a few sets of deadlifts to finish

but on the final rep of my final set (sound effect) i entered snap city

i dropped the weight mid rep after a sharp pain in my lower back cut me off

i unracked my weight and hobbled home with my tail between my legs

i went straight to bed to lie down and woke up the next morning barely able to move

i eventually was able to walk around but i couldnt even do a body weight squat or deadlift without pain

i also couldn't sit for periods over 20 minutes

this went on for about 2 years with me reinjuring myself a few times doing everything wrong and eventually seeing a physiotherapist

to the point im at now where i can squat deadlift and sit again with just some small maintenance that i probably should have been doing anyway for prevention

so in this video im going to be going over the 5 things i would do to prevent and fix lower back pain.
