>Supporters of the use of squat, deadlift and the Olympic lifts contend that these
exercises are safe when the skills of these lifts are taught properly. However, a 2002
study by Raske and Norlin found a high incidence of injury in the even highly skilled
weight lifters. Raske and Norlin (2002) found an average injury rate of 2.6 injuries per
1000 hours of participation by competitive elite power and elite weightlifting lifters.
This equates roughly to at least one injury every two years from four hours of weekly
weight training. That may sound like a reasonable rate of injury, until a few things are
considered. Major injuries, which were defined as not being able to lift/compete as
planed for over a month occurred at a rate of 1.16 injuries per every 1000 hours of
participation. At that rate if an athlete weight trains in this manner for four hours a week,
they would have one major injury from weight training within five years. And according
to Raske and Norlin‟s (2002) statistical data, there is a 35% chance that that major injury
will be to the lumbar spine.

>Holy fuck. Call the news.

From the article which you havent read:

>Had the subject surveyed by Raske and Norlin (2002) not been skilled lifters, it is
likely that the injury rate would have been much higher. One study showed that 39 of 71
(39.4%) of novice powerlifters were injured within their first 17 month of training. Many
of these subjects had at least 2 injuries and the average time lost to injury was eleven and
a half days (Brown and Kimball 1983). The injury rate for novice Olympic weightlifter
could be expected to be similar to those of novice powerlifters because the injury rate
between the two forms of lifting has been shown to be quite similar by Raske and Norlin
(2002). The higher rate of injury shown by novice weight lifters may more accurately
reflect the likelihood of an athlete from another sport getting injured by these
weightlifting tasks.

Daily reminder that isolation is only so good and ultimately complete integration of the posterior chain and posterior cross slings is a must for proper movement and health of the body.
The body doesn't work in parts, but as an integrated whole. Isolation has its place, but only if there is a weak link in the entire chain or your a bodybuilder who feels a particular spot is lacking
>>
>>42547390
weighted back extensions aren't the safest either. i recall reading some data that indicated reverse hypers as the lowest shear highest posterior chain ratio. fuck me if i can find that source again tho.
>>42547428
recommending highly effectice lifts that are objectively safer from a biological, scientific and kiniseology standpoint is """anti-exercise""" because they don't fit your validation seeking tryhard routines.

People often parrot the, "use good form and diddly is safe" meme. Good form is a buzzword. Humans factually will make mistakes. The difference between deadlift and other exercises is a mistake in form can be far more detrimental to the spine because you can
1. lift far more weight with it than the alternatives
2. you're in a far more spine compromising position with far more weight
And if you aren't utilizing the ability to go heavy then it's no longer a particularly effective exercise. It is the going heavy aspect that makes this lift so effective whereas with others you can use less weight and elicit a high level of muscle activation. Furthermore why even bother with getting so strong at breaking the floor? You're neglecting your strength levels past the floor which are much higher because you are artificially limited by your ability to break the floor. Rack pulls are much, much, MUCH better and safer than deadlift. You can go heavier while putting your spine at less odds of shearing forces while properly strengthening your muscles through the strength curve where they're naturally strongest.

>>42549756
>Wow, call the news again. Most novices are stupid and don't pay proper attention to form.

You are a deficient reader of scientific literature. The study authors do not cite poor form as a reason for injury.

It is simply the inherent risk attached to the lift that results in injury.
>>
>>42550402
Do they even discuss form?
>>
>>42550430
>Do they even discuss form?

No, they dont. Here's an extract from the study's conclusion:

>From the limited data on the injury potential of the squat, deadlift, and the Olympic lifts, it appears as though there is an increased injury risk associated with these exercises. Injuries are more prevalent in the knees and back,
although shoulder and wrist problems can also present themselves to Olympic lifters.
Injuries to the back are of particular concern because they tend to be chronic in nature
and may shorten an athlete‟s career.

do you really not know how to use google? it's a standard devised by a group for safe lifting, particularly in the workplace. it is not applicable to lifting far beyond loads you'd find outside of work such as in a heavy deadlift. You can read about it here http://www.hazardcontrol.com/factsheets/ml-mh/NIOSH-guidelines-and-revised-formula

Their formula produces a safe "limit" that would be considered less than beginner weight on deadlift for most healthy adult males.

I'm 35 years old, have been doing heavy compound lifts for 15 years, and you're full of shit.

If you do lifts correctly you're going to be in *less* pain when you get older, not more. Doing lifts correctly leads to stronger muscles, bones, tendons, and ligaments, which ultimately leads to less pain and risk of injury.

I know plenty of guys my age who go around preaching the "dangers" of heavy lifting (eg: deadlifts) and all of them are fat fucks who don't know and have probably never known what they're doing.

I feel like people like you are an outlier. If it were so safe you wouldn't constantly need to say so, it would be self evident.

The reason people seem to constantly trying to fix their form and topics like these keep coming up is because tiny mistakes with deadlift can be crippling and everybody makes mistakes.

Again people like you are an outlier. If you are happy with it by all means keep doing it I would too. But the evidence isn't on your side.

I deadlifted 515lbs at 148lbs bodyweight after competition cutting. That was undoubtedly impressive, and I have the medals to prove it.

The post you quoted hits the nail on the head. Part of me wants to let you idiots make the same mistake I did so more people have to suffer like I do, part of me wants to help. I'm just going to say this: good form or not, constantly putting that much pressure on the soft tissue of your spine is going to fuck you up eventually. It doesn't have to be a bad rep, even all the good reps are fucking you over. And that bad rep will come... Even roiders snap their shit up.

Deadlift is basically a useless exercise unless you are trying to win worlds strongest man or some shit. Everyone I know who goes to the gym and looks great shirtless, including me, do barely any deadlifting. Almost none. So many other exercises can build those muscles and not leave you a haggard old crippled hunchback by the time you turn 50.

And? If someone wants to ride a motorcycle, that's their business.
Except (I guess other than happiness gains if someone happens to be super into motorcycles and in great pain every second they're not involved with one) deadlifts actually have a benefit towards your health to compensate for the risk being taken, just as air travel has a benefit towards convenience (well, speed. Well, motion sickness. Well, comfo- you know what, why the fuck DOES air travel exist?).

Point is, as I said, life is dangerous. No shit lifting heavy loads with your spine in a precarious position has the potential to go wrong for you one day. So does crossing the street, so does traveling to foreign places, so does having sex or giving birth or having any sort of adventure.
If someone wants to deadlift and knows how to limit the risks as much as possible, there's no reason they shouldn't deadlift. We'd all be a lot safer if we spent our lives in padded bubbles, but what the fuck would be the point in that?

More apples to oranges comparisons zzzzzzz

The risks involved in deadlifting create a scenario that'a far, far, FAR more likely to result in an injury than anything you could possibly compare it to short of willful ignorance. Placing abnormal loads on the body where a tiny mistake is clinically proven to be within range of injury is more likely to result in injury

Are people who deadlift 35 times stronger than people who don't?

>More apples to oranges comparisons zzzzzzz
They're not comparisons, the point is shit fucking happens. I'll throw in fucking, I dunno, bull fighting and cliff diving and summiting Everest if you want something more deadly. If someone is into that shit and wants it in their life then power to them, I hope they study up.
Every single aspect of being alive comes with risks, it's up to those who participate to inform themselves and decide if they're worth it or not.
Bringing awareness to potential risks is fine, but hanging around whinging that absolutely no one should do deadlifts just makes you look like a jackass.

You're more likely to injury yourself in your bathroom or in your kitchen rather than doing a specific exercise in a gym you're focused on, if you're not a meathead devoted to egolifting. "Apples to oranges"... right.

Those are called virgin deadlifts.
>>
>>42552433
If you are deadlifting 600+ lbs form is literally a buzzword. You are placing enough n shearing forces on your spine, even with perfect form, to injure yourself. Using less weight linearly scales with getting sloppy with form. A bad form deadlift with 300 lbs is enough to injure your spine. It all comes from a thoroughly reviewed piece of research this image >>42550334 is taken from. Google deadlifting shearing forces first link should be a pdf of it.
>>42552454
I don't perform activities with greater than normal risk of injury in the event of a mistake unless I have to. You being careless with your life and not caring about dangers isn't an argument for deadlifting .
>>42552459
Maybe if you have kleinfelters or something. The limits of the spine are fairly well understood and deadlift past a certain weight leaves no room for error. I can act like a buffoon in the kitchen and never get hurt because none of these activities are challenging enough to instigate high risk mistakes. More retarded apples to oranges comparisons. Go back to school kid.

nigger, please.
>3 pl8s are enough with BADFORM, therefore GOODFORM is a buzzform
not everyone is a child attempting to egolift. Please stop giving advice, your idiocy hurts.

Jesus fucking Christ you people are soft. Why do anything? Why not just stay in Mommy's basement and masturbate because the real world can hurt you. Injuries made in the gym are almost always fixed in the gym. My coach is physically better off than 90% of people his age and he's beat to hell from the military. Deadlifts make you stronger. Don't be a fucking pussy.

I know at least one 600+lb puller who's 50 and still hasn't injured his back. Stop being a bitch.

Training Lower body without deadlifts is how you get back problems.

If you train the hell out of your quadriceps and calves with tons of workload, but then do very little to 0 workload for your hamstrings and glutes, you're asking for back problems.

Leg Curls aren't enough workload to make up for all the quad-dominated lower body lifts you perform, you NEED a heavy pull that uses hamstrings and glutes in order to maintain balance in your lower body for not only aesthetics, but for avoiding muscle imbalance of the quadriceps and hamstrings/glutes.

What about smith machine RDLs?

But anon, you don't need to be in good shape when you're old if you plan to spend your whole life in front of the TV!
You say squats, I say sitting down
You say deadlifts, I say remote lifts
You say bench press, I say sandwich press

I rack pulll 1000 lbs, no I don't ohp but when I did I could do bodyweight of it at 200 lbs now I only bench, row and band lateral raises for shoulder, I ride a bicycle to work, do weighted pull ups. None of these activities carry even a fraction of the risk of heavy deadlifting because they all have easy to use fail safe mechanisms that don't leave any part of your body in a injurious position before given time to react. A wear a helmet and follow traffic laws unless somebody else is at fault I have no cause for concern, I bench in a rack if I drop the weight nothing happens, same with pull ups there's no known reason to fear anything no body parts are in a position where a mistake could fuck them up.

The spine , particularly the low back, is a bigger bitch than all else to injure. I'd rather break an ankle shooting hoops than suffer from a bulging disc pressing on a nerve for the rest of my life. A broken boke can heal back stronger than ever. A fucked up low back can cripple you for life.

>A bad form deadlift with 300 lbs is enough to injure your spine. It all comes from a thoroughly reviewed piece of research this image >>42550334 is taken from.
An image which also seems to show that a 300lb deadlift with good form is perfectly fine.

I know every ego lifter is too full of themselves and staked their existence too much on lifting to admit they're dying inside.
>>
>>42552663
Yes I never said performing a deadlift within a reasonable weight wasn't perfectly fine. My argument is it's human nature to make mistakes and a mistake while deadlifting is incredibly likely to occur and more costly than others. Notice a mistake produced somewhere in the ballpark of 2x the n shearing forces indicated for injury at a piddly 300lbs diddly.
>>
>>42552674
I'm a competitor. Hence the coach. Not the same thing as an ego lifter. Ego lifters don't deadlift, they do rack pulls and trap bar just to do more weight. Stop being such a soft little faggot.
>>
>>42552710
You're a validation seeking clueless tryhard. Breaking the floor strength is nothing more than an artificial limitation that fails to properly work your muscles through the remaining ROM where they're stronger. Your wannabe tough guy routine may work on beginners who never lifted but anybody else is laughing at how clueless and retarded you sound.

If you're training to be or are a world class athlete you should probably deadlift and you have freakishly amazing genetics that do not pertain to the general population. 36" vertical and on your way to a 400-500lb power clean? Don't listen to me.

Should be profile view and you should have a series of photos through the lift for us to rate form.

>injure his back at 23 because of deadlifts despite perfect form

wow..
>>
>>42552916
do you compete? do you train for hypothetical 1RMs that you eventually attempt at meets? or do you do submaximal pulls with good form?

if you aren't either
a) arrogant
or
b) an athlete competing in the sport of powerlifting

you should be doing some exercise to train your posterior chain. deadlifts are fine. hypers are fine. pelvic thrusts are fine. good mornings are questionable, but probably fine if you use bitch weight and know what you're doing.

it's easier to viral market these days due to widespread internet access. it's easier to make money selling form advice on yt to a large group of people performing free weights vs machines. it's easier to sell lots of iron to lots of smalltime gyms vs machines to one big gym. simply put barbell training synergizes better with internet based viral marketing.

If I wanted to fix my routine, what would I do different? Is it worthwhile to buy a bunch of old 80's fitness magazines?
>>
>>42553665
There are only a few things you really need to research, look for, know and pay attention to

1. use exrx.net to find lifts to target specific body parts
2. search google for emg results for any given lift whenever possible
3. always perform a lift to near failure and in various rep rangesi
4. always keep an open mind to finding new lifts
5. hit all body parts 2-3x per week

From this guideline you should be able to build yourself a routine using whatever equipment you choose.

>>42552516
Better ratio of hip/knee shear forces, better transfer to jumping and sprinting. Vetted by Ryan Flaherty who is an elite speed trainer. Call it whatever you want but it's a good lift.

no risk? be honest you don't know anyone who has hurt their back doing dl's?

>>42552645
You sure cupcake, I'd say your rotator cuffs are much weaker and smaller than your spine. Lateral raises, pull ups, rack pulls, and even bench press puts those at risk. You're a hypocrite and an idiot, not to mention a DYEL with a piss baby back.

>I rack pull 1000 pounds
Incredible, you wanna E-stat about the amount of crunches you can do in a minute too?
