But just because a problem springs up during an exercise doesn't mean you get to ignore all the other things that might have contributed to the problem. I don't think it's a coincidence that the goodmoring problem came after a big deadlift jump. Likewise I don't think it's a coincidence that you are hurting again after a similar jump. It's simply a weight you shouldn't be doing right now.
i agree. i shouldnt have done 275.

I told you way back when you wanted to get back into deadlifting that you should consider it a clean slate and not to be influenced by what you did before. But you haven't been able to stick to that.
no i havent. i guess im going to learn this lesson the hard way. its always like i excel in 10 ways and then i flunk in one and that one is so crucial. hmmm

well, this pain isnt that bad. its pretty serious and it will mostly take 10-14 days to go most probably so then ill have to begin this process of ramping slowly. even if it takes a year to get back to what i could do before. wow...thats depressing.

Once you can get deads going again then keep on slowly and systematically progressing them and stop trying to reach for this golden ring you thought you had in the past.
i think thats the key Eric. not aiming for that golden ring.

is there any particular way u would like me to train right now? i cant do rows for shit. chinups are fine. so is bench press. and seated militaries. and barbell militaries. and pull-ups. i guess by the time ido squats on tuesday-wednesday ill be in better shape. i think Eric, im going to start off doing lighter work. i think its really time i stop aiming for that 315x5. fuck.

but u know what? its ok. im only 19. if i have to wait 2 years before i nail 315x5 thats fine. i can pull that off well IMO. ill wait it out, sir.

and thanks for the advice E. u really pinpoint the faults accurately. makes me think a lot about how i need to change the way i approach my training. thanks sir.

ill update this with how my back is feeling tomorrow. cheers.
