Any advice on if I can do cbl & sw since I injured my back? Should I just dead lift very low weight and work back up?
Think id just do CarbNite, or backload after a good upper body workout (like bench press workout).Deadlifting w/ light weight probably wouldn't illicit a proper amount of Tglut.What kind of injury we talking here? Pulled muscle, or herniated disc?
Maybe some reverse hyper work?
Do you know of any other gym in the area that has a reverse hyper other then Celli's ?

the rhomboids/middle back and lats can be engaged with many different exercises putting the back in a more suitable position. I would think about 'exercise selection' more or less. If you were stuck on deadlifting you could begin with rack pulls instead and see how that goes. That's pretty much 3/4 a deadlift and your starting point will essentially be in a stronger position.
What was the injury and how long ago was it?RB
I hurt it will dead lifting. Probably bad form since I was going for a PR. It was like 2 months ago. I've only been to a chiropractor since I dont have insurance. I doubt it is serious since it doesnt hurt unless I am working out. The chiropractor suggested I not workout for a few weeks. Im worked that it will never heal if I dont do something to strengthen the muscles again. I like the idea of back-loading only on the days I hit the other parts. Honestly, my BF is probably 5% too high for CBL so I dont mind doing CN for a while if my back will heal if I keep waiting.
I tried to do rack pulls with 225 and it hurt like hell. I used to DL 405 for 6 reps. Someone suggest I start with the bar and work my way up. Damn, I may have to do that if waiting doesn't help.
severe pain is not your body playing a sick joke on you. Its a purposeful signal, sent to your brain telling you, that your damaging your tissue, and you should stop.So I would rest it for awhile, do what you can weightlifting w/o causing severe pain to yourself. Discomfort is different than pain. I know its a pain in the ass. You sound like me exactly 1 year ago at this time. Hurt my back deadlifting, felt just like a herniated disc, I was very worried I would have to have surgery, and I wouldn't be able to do any lifting for weeks, or months. I delt w/ for a couple months, after awhile it become well frequent and severe, and now I wouldn't even know I had any back pain.just do what u can, nothing else you can do.

Well I Would Def Would Get That Checked Out When U Can Because It May Be More Severe Than Just A Pull. I Have Tweaked My Back When I First Started Deadlfting With A Str8 Back Now I Do Them Rounded Back And have No Issues But...JusT Wait A Few Weeks And Go From There. You Can Build A Great Back Without Heavy Deads Too So Dont Lose hope
Can it really be bad enough for a doc if I have no pain day to day? I just want to eat carbs without getting fat so I am ok with no having a big back.
