The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
and that's why dead lifting is the most important thing I do before I get on an airplane because when you're on an airplane and you're sitting there for five or six hours what you really want to do is not let your spine be compressed and the deadlift Prime's me to then go and sort of maintain that activated form of traction
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
it never occurred to me up until a year and a half ago that you could actually deadlift in a way that puts your spine under traction that's very counterintuitive you would think that anytime you're lifting under an axial load your spine is under compression but it turns out when you learn the right positioning and you understand how to create intra-abdominal pressure and you know how do we long gate your spine you can actually deadlift and create traction in the spine actively
