Well this sucks.. planned on doing back yday,
did cardio for 10 minutes just to warmup, then a few stretches, then started with deadlifts
135x8
145x6
165x3 as i was going up on my third rep i felt this sharp pain in my lower back n I quickly put the rack back.. it felt as if someone kicked me in my lower back reallly hard
it's still hurting and I had to skip work..

This sucks I hope I didn't do any permanent damage, gonna see a chiropractor later on

Brother don't be discouraged, keep it up one day at a time it will come back and you will be stronger than before I promise. Weight gain, Gallon Of Milk A Day (GOMAD) it works I promise I started out at about 245 ish I'm weighing in at 280 ish LOL...

Did you ever figure out what happened to you on your last deadlift attempt when you hurt your back?

Knit advice I'd feel comfortable giving is to take it slow. Leave the ego at the door and gradually work back to what you used to lift. Gains will come - muscle memory is an amazing thing!

You know what you need to do Rampage. Be consistent. Get those calories in every day no matter what. Lift heavy, stick to compound exercises. You'll grow quick for a while.

I saw a chiropractor, and told him about it. He said I should've stretched which I didn't really do, and guess I tried lifting to much. I was being foolish trying to lift too much without realizing I hadn't been to the gym in 5 months, I learned my lesson though. I thought I was gonna be handicapped for life that night it was very stressful. But yah I will take things much slower now. I feel like shit when I see guys who used to be smaller then me and now there bigger
