"I do go to the gym, but I don't do deadlifts, I know they're bad for my back." Chris hears this in the clinic regularly, and in this episode, he wants to challenge it.
The fear around deadlifts is completely understandable, but the belief that they're dangerous might actually be leaving your back more vulnerable, not less.
In this episode, Chris covers:
Why the fear around deadlifts is so common, and where it usually comes from
Why pain after a deadlift doesn't necessarily mean you've caused damage
The concept of load tolerance, and why it changes everything
Why avoiding the movement might be creating a bigger risk down the line
How to introduce deadlifts safely, step by step, even if you've had a bad experience in the past
When to seek professional guidance before getting started
Whether you've been avoiding deadlifts for years or you're just nervous about starting, this episode will give you a clearer, more confident picture of what the evidence actually says.
