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 blame the utterly nonsensical popularaization of deadlifts. Whatever you get outta that, is minimal compared to the risk of potential injury. Also, 90% of the time, people AREN’T using the proper form, so it makes it even worse! add in trying to squeeze out extra reps, or going for a new PR, it’s just an injury waiting to happen. Been liftin my whole life, fuck deadlifts.
