Research shows that the #1 reason people get hurt deadlifting is spinal flexion under load which is basically, your back rounding while the weight is heavy. The deadlift is one of the most effective compound movements for building strength but form is everything.

❌ Common mistakes you want to avoid:
- Rounding the lower back: increases injury risk to the intervertebral discs
- Bar drifting away from the body: puts excess stress on the lower back
- Hips shooting up first: Turns the lift into a stiff-leg deadlift
- Looking up excessively: Hyperextends the cervical spine and disrupts spine alignment

✅ Things to remember for your next deadlifts:
- Maintain the natural curve of your lumbar spine
- Push the floor away, don't just pull the bar up
- Keeps the load close to your center of gravity
- Use your core when you pull
- Drive through the floor with your legs

People do not realize the need to prepare your muscles before a replacement surgery. While we work with post-surgery recovery patients, we also help our patients going into surgery to work their muscles so that the knee replacement or hip replacement re-hab is smoother.
