Abstract in brief

Participants with less disability, lower pain levels, and stronger hip and back extensor muscles (as measured by the Biering-Srensen test) are more likely to benefit from deadlift training for low back pain.
The Biering-Srensen test, which measures muscle endurance, was identified as the most reliable predictor for positive outcomes, followed by the initial pain intensity levels.
For effective rehabilitation using deadlifts, strength and conditioning professionals should assess clients’ muscle endurance and pain levels beforehand to identify those who are most likely to experience improvements.]

Biering-Sørensen test should be considered before recommending an individual with low back pain to start deadlift training. High pain intensity was > 60 mm on the Visual Analog Scale. Low performance on the Biering was an ability to hold less than 60 secs. https://t.co/u4NG1ijdIe https://t.co/fxelBioGrv
