סתם אמירה נחמדה של Jamie Lewis על גב עגול בדדליפט:
למען הסר ספק, אני לא ממליץ למשוך עם גב עגול. אבל גם עם גב עגול אפשר למשוך משקלים הרבה יותר כבדים ממה שמקובל לחשוב, וזה לא כזה אסון גדול.
For whatever reason, there
appears to be some sort of a witch-hunt regarding round-backed lifting,
probably fueled by insurance companies. People who should never lift with a
round back are weak and untrained people. If you look at odd-shaped object
lifts performed in real life by truly strong people, such as log or stone lifts, you’ll
see that the lifts are always done with a round back. Similarly, many of the best
pullers in history, such as Konstantin Konstantinovs, John Kuc, Andy Bolton, and
Bob Peoples pulled with pronounced rounding in their backs. I personally pull
with a round back and have never had a single problem with my lower back.
That is not to say you should intentionally pull with a round back, but if your back
rounds on a heavy pull, it’s not the end of the world, and fuck anyone who says it
is. Ten times out of ten, the guys bitching about round back lifting are weak as
kittens
