>My friend shattered his spine doing deadlifts

Sorry to hear that. I'm curious what the context was though.

At what weight did this occur? Was he a seasoned lifter? Novice?

He was a regular in the gym for at least a few years, trying to loose weight. I don't know the weight he was lifting, but I suspect he moved to heavier weights before developing the proper technique.
