Your disc injury is not
about that last deadlift you did
before it started to hurt.

 
  1. It is about the millions of violent rotations your spine underwent every time you threw a ball or swung a bat.
     
  2. It is about the 20 years of school you spent sitting at a desk.
     
  3. It is about the summer job you had during college loading and unloading thousands of kegs and cases of beer for 10 hours a day.
     
  4. It is about the 20 years of weightlifting, and maybe some of those reps with sub-optimal form…
     
  5. It is about the genetically determined toughness of your discs. (Thank your parents).
     
  6. It is about the 45 minute commute you have to and from work every day where you then sit for 6-8 more hours.

Blaming your disc injury on that last deadlift is like blaming your obesity on that last piece of chocolate cake.
