Post a video of yourself
Caleb Sullivan
no way man... posting a video of yourself on Jow Forums is something only maniacs do
i know this makes helping me almost impossible, but i'm just throwing this thread out there in case there's something obvious i haven't thought about
it's my lower back and it's always in the same area
i can even feel it when moving plates... in fact, it's at its worse when i'm loading up the bar

>you're not bracing
>you're abs aren't strong enough to support your lower back
>you're not using your lats enough
Ryder Green
you warming up at all?
Charles Fisher

someone put that shit into sticky
Asher Price
Definitely warming up.
Thanks man, I'll watch this right away.
Angel Richardson
imagine your nose pressed *directly* against their shit holes, just primed for the biggest inhale you'll have all week.
Easton Price
haha shit holes thats a good one gunna add that to my brap word bank
Elijah Roberts
so this video was good but it didn't tell me much
or maybe i'm just a dumbshit who can't follow directions
i feel like i do everything he mentions... maybe i don't swoop my hips in fast enough?
Eli Morris
Deload. Work core more.
Lincoln Allen
I had this problem too. I deloaded, worked on form, got a decent PT to give me feedback, read SS again. I did fucking everything. And I still fucked my discs. If you are fucking your back doing deadlifts just stop doing them. They're a good exercise but not worth fucking your back over for. Not by a long shot.
Dominic Evans
Since i started incorporating more direct ab work and glute work i have yet to hurt my back, and it´s been almost a year. Whilst squatting and pulling high frequency

Definitely deload and work on your form. What really helped my form was reading Greyskull LP, where JP gives the advice that you should get into the DL position, then lean a bit back to the point where you would lose balance and fall backwards, and in this point you snag the barbell off the ground. I know it sounds weird, but I tried it, and it works
David Hughes
Try neutral grip dumbbell squats instead
No snap city

Gabriel Brooks
exactly my experience after years of heavy squats and dl. Also stop sooner than later, i was too stubborn and my back is never free of pain now, there are only better days. You can still be fit without them, infact they are overrated in terms of bodybuilding. Only worth doing if you wanna compete in powerlifting
Benjamin Perry
Without seeing a video I'm going to assume it is either weak abs or weak hams. Do ab work and work on posterior chain.
Aaron Nelson
It might not be your dl at all but your squat that's actually messing your lower back up. Do you keep a neutral spine all the way to the bottom of your squat?
Deadlift should feel more like a hinge at the hips than a pull with the back.
Jack Mitchell
>ignoring the only post here that tells you what you're doing wrong
Good luck with that wheelchair, OP.
Lincoln Rodriguez
What were your best lifts?
Nolan Evans
John Reed
user, I get the feel you didn't start the thread to talk about deadlifting
Adam Rivera
Dominic Green
*bzzzt* wrong
You want whole-foot pressure.
If sitting far back helps, you either need to lower your hips (not likely), activate your lats more and stiff-arm the bar towards you or warm up your hamstrings and glutes more beforehand, IMO
Kayden Anderson
Philion is that you?
Brody Wood
He didnt say anything about pushing from heels though
3point contact with floor is important but he didnt say you arent supposed to do that.
T. Leans back during setup on deadlift, pulls 5plate
Asher Evans
Rest. Do some mobility drills. Strengthen your core (research bracing properly, Chris Duffin has good vids), hamstrings, and make sure glutes are firing properly
Grayson Evans
Work core and back. Breath with your belly and brace hard.
Isaiah Watson
