Squats

I am 57 and enjoy working out. Will squats (with bar bell on back of my shoulders) or deadlifts cause a disc herniation? Thank youEd

    Dear Ed,You put yourself at risk of injuring your disk with those exercises. It would be better to use exercises like leg extension curls or leg press. Kind regards Dr Anthony Gambale
