I can't deadlift anymore, fuck my stupid fucking life

Deadlifting was my favorite exercise for the six months that I could do them. Fuck squats, fuck bench, fuck curls, fuck them all, for me it was the deadlift. It made me look huge almost instantly thanks to the newb gains I made. Then one day I tried the fucking low bar squat, apparently with incorrect form, and fucked my shit up. Snap city, etc. I went to the doc and they say it's a herniated disc. They asked if I want to get it fixed, which is free because socialism. I want to get it fixed, but I can't right now because I'm about to get a new job and move to a new city.

I've done the weird exercises as a natural remedy to get this fixed, but they don't really help other than for a moment. I've seen Athlean-X's video on how it works and seen a couple of different doctors about it too. Shit doesn't help.

Fuck man, I just want to deadlift but I don't want to fuck up my back more than I already have. And if I get the surgery I don't want to snap that shit up again.

- If I get the surgery, when can I expect to deadlift again? Obviously I would start with low weights and focus entirely on proper form. I don't give a shit about squats anymore, because I don't care one bit about legs to be honest.
- If I don't get the surgery and don't feel pain WHILE powering through with deadlifts anyways, will I just fuck my shit up more or will it somehow strengthen my back to the point where I won't make it worse?

Fixed herniated disc naturally and lifting 3.5pl8 deadlift and 110 kg squat for reps after 6-7 months back lifting here

Go to a physio. Take some rest before that. I had to take 2 years of complete rest and then physio to fix my shit. Plus it took me months before I could add anything more to an empty bar. But with patience and persistence you’ll be back

Best of luck OP

stuart mcgill's back mechanic, maybe it will help you

>I can't right now because I'm about to get a new job and move to a new city

>not putting health first
You'll fuckin regret that in a few short years

this is why you fucking retards should do SS

i havent deadlifted in years who gives a fuck just do rack pulls you massive faggot

What makes you think he wasn't doing SS

someone who enjoys deadlifts might give a fuck

What do you mean? They're not mutually exclusive. I am only doing chin-ups and push-ups at home right now in an attempt to get my lower back to recover and my sciatica to go away. I can still function in my daily life.

OP here, I was indeed doing SS. inb4 "reee should have bought the fucking book best investment of muh lyf" spare me dude
