    It's kind of disheartening how there's so much conflicting advice in the realms of exercise and nutritional science; you could ask ten different experts and they would give you ten different lines of advice on what to eat and how best to work out. I know it's hard to come up with conclusive studies in those fields based on the nature of the problem but it'd be nice if there were some kind of authoritative source that you could look up and get a universally agreed upon answer to any health or fitness related question that you might have.

      It's just about finding the right resources, and looking in the right places. Instagram nutritionists/coaches will generally always give you misinformation because they're just trying to sell a product. Dive into the research to verify what you learn. And always be suspicious of taking anecdotal evidence to heart - like advice that you shouldn't deadlift.

      Deads used to be my best life. I was early 20s and just warming up. Did 315 warming up . Picked it up and tweaked my back. I didn't rack the weights I just left cause I knew I'd get tight. 5 minute car ride home and I had to crawl out the car. Dead are the only thing that gave me injuries. I'm 36 now. I still do deads. But I'll go to chiropractor and stretch and get massages regularly. I do 225 easy. Sometimes 275. I don't need to do 500 for reps. Noones paying me to do it.

      @@jaymiddleton1782 I just can't think of any natural reason you'd ever be in the Deadlift position, speaking from 10 years working in removals and demolition. Squating to lift something heavy is the way to go.

      @@grubbybum3614 I beg to differ, anytime you pick up something heavy off the floor it's basically a deadlift. Like when I do manual labor and I have to pick up heavy or multiple bags of concrete or sand off the floor, that is basically a deadlift. If you were a farmer and had to pick up a heavy stone to remove it from your field, that would be a deadlift too, so I find it natural actually as long as you're not just doing super heavy weights or focusing too much on that exercise

    People, this man isn’t telling us to not do deadlifts. What he’s saying is that the risk factor is high, especially if you’re doing heavy weight. That’s why athletes like to stay away from it. To safely deadlift, always make sure your form is good, and only lift what you feel is comfortable/achievable with proper form.

      @@Alvah707 I dont think you understand what a power clean is. The problem with a quick Google search is that the information that you find might be incorrect. We are not only talking about the lower back but overall risk of injury. There is no way that a deadlift is mechanically safer than a power clean as it is basically a deadlift and front squat COMBINED. During the lift off you still roughly use the SAME movement pattern and muscles as during a deadlift. Not even to mention that you have to be explosive during a power clean and cannot pace yourself to focus on form like you can in the deadlift. And youre telling me there is some how more risk of injury in a much simpler movement? There are so many contradicting opinions in this industry and a lot of athletes just follow their coaches advice. Experts constantly disagree with eachother. So no disrespect to this individual but what he said simply is not correct.

    I injured my lower back twice. Once lifting my father off the ground after he had fallen and the first time I ever did heavy deadlifts. This is what Robert is talking about. In both situations I didn't lift properly, in the first I didn't even have the strength to do it at all.
    I then began watching tutorials daily and checking back constantly to make sure I was performing the lift properly. Lifted for about four years after that, with the deadlift being one of my core strength building exercises. Never once had another issue again, because I was doing them correctly.
    Robert's advice shouldn't be "don't perform deadlifts.". It should be, "don't perform deadlifts if you're not serious about mastering correct form and performance of this exercise.".
    Granted, he is right, most people, like myself in the beginning, probably won't. But if one is going to learn to safely and properly do the deadlift, then it is actually quite bad advice to advise against "ever" doing it. It's a natural lifting movement that humans have been performing for millennia. It works several key muscle groups and can be great for building beast like power when lifting heavy and correctly.

Ironically if you're ensuring your form is correct you won't be able to lift it if you're tired and you let it go. A rounded back can actually enable you to lift a weight more easily but it's more dangerous. When I started deadlifting at 21 I went up to 230kg in a few weeks and my form on that 1RM was horrible.

    I don't know what Joe Rogan means by "virtual" accomplishment. But as someone who both climbs and codes, and used to study math, I must strongly disagree with his position at the beginning. Solving a particular climbing or bouldering problem feels amazing for sure, and the physical aspect of it definitely helps. But solving a really tough coding problem, or solving a really hard math problem, or even _understanding_ a math proof that you were struggling with, has a very similar, sometimes stronger level of euphoria. As an example, I was struggling to understand the proof of Cantor's Theorem. When I finally did, and it clicked, it felt as satisfying as topping some of the hardest climbing problems I have done. IDK if Joe Rogan has experienced that kind of thing, but he shouldn't dismiss it if he hasn't.

      I think what Rogan is talking about when he says "virtual" is beating Bowzer in Mario or doing a 360 flip down a 25-stair on Tony Hawk. While those things are exciting, it's not quite the same as tapping somebody out in a Jiu-Jitsu match or doing a simple ollie up a curb after months of practicing.
      While coding takes place on a computer and math on paper (or a screen), you're still creating something real or solving a real problem that has consequences. I don't think Rogan is referring to those accomplishments when he says "virtual."
