This workout pissed me off bc I want to squat and deadlift and do things that strengthen my spine bad but everyone is so fucking scared, and honestly I'm not surprised that my back got tweaked when I've been told to avoid making it stronger.. I'll have to find some ways to do that without loading the spine...
