Daily reminder the genetically predetermined shape of the discs in your spine determine their ability to bear heavy compressive loads or conversely their ability to bend and twist without herniation. It's not your size, stature, age or gender! If you have low back pain squatting or deadlifting it's probably not your form as these lifts are trivial tasks that even a retard can perform correctly. It's purely spinal genetics and there's nothing you can do to change this fact.

I've had pretty bad pain on the right side of my tailbone for a few weeks. I don't think it's caused by deadlifting, I think it's caused by sitting on my ass all day but deadlifts do aggravate it a bit. What is this shit and how do I fix it?

a few years ago i would have disagreed vehemently and called op a faggot

but after seeing someone in /plg/ snap their shit while doing perfect form triples with 225lbs on deadlift i can't argue

op is still a faggot

Also I've actually had this for years but it's come back with a vengeance recently.

>people who skip abs/only work the large core muscles/don't do dynamic core work/skip flexibility training beyond squats actually believe this

it has nothing to do with any of that though

You have to stop doing what causes pain until you no longer experience symptoms and strengthen your core muscles. McGill recommends his big 3 routine google it but ultimately this means you need to work your abs, obliques, quadratus lumborum and lumbar erectors mainly. This process is effective through a phenomenon known as superstiffness.

Yeah I definitely should work my core more. I never really gave it any attention because I fell for the "squats and deadlifts work your core" meme. I know they technically do, but then again rows work your arms yet people still do curls.

Deadlifts only work some core muscles effectively, mainly the posterior side. It's a highly effective lumbar erector exercise but it also places a massive compressive load on the spine, possibly making it a poor choice for those born with ovoid shaped discs in their spine.

already repeating what I know. I get lower back pain on a 3.5 plate dead with perfect form. Nothing I've ever been able to do can fix the pain. But if I ask for help from the powerlifting community, I get yelled at and preached at about "muh form".
