I'll start: I tried to move a bookshelf while drunk about 6 years ago and tore a tendon in my shoulder pretty damn good. It still bothers me sometimes if I move it wrong or sleep on it wrong.

I think deadlifts done correctly are almost unanimously considered a good lift, but I was ahead of my skis that day on weight and already had a bad back. I’d been form checked by two trainers so I think I was okay there too, but I can’t be sure because the smallest, imperceptible change, especially if you already have a bad back can ruin things quickly. I live with a ton of regret about it. Hindsight blah blah.

yeah, right? like, you can work forever on getting good form for a lift, but as soon as you start straining, bit tired, maybe 3rd or 4th set, things start to get lax, and BAM. herniated disk. sucks.
