This story started yesterday evening at my local David Lloyd's, so here we have myself, my mate and his cousin whom is approximately the same height as me, I'm 13.5 stone and 5ft 9 so roughly I'm weighing in at 85kg myself, we've been going to the gym a few weeks now and basically have now started doing "deadlifts" as part of a weekly routine for shoulders or upper body strength perhaps.
Now bear in mind I'm by no stretch of the imagination having any experiance in PTI but anyway the hex bar comes out which itself weighs 30kg and 2 x 20kg weights on side by side, so that
Beginning:
70kg - 10 reps manageable although not exactly light
110kg - Got a few out of it but like say 4
150kg - Here I'm virtually straining my back and I have one guy behind me pointing out it's my "technique"
The question is, am I right in saying that trying to deadlift more than you can manage and than going up not only risking an injury but retarded as a thought? Bearing in mind I was bantering with an ex-para last night whom said he wasn't even a fan as he picked up injury because of it.
Now bearing in mind today my back is aching and I'll be skipping gym until I've recovered
