I really don't think we should take it to this extend. He simply gave me some ideas and info, as well as opinions. No need to assume accountability or blame for any exercise going wrong. I asked for routine ideas and received them. I don't know why we should assume everything should be taken so literally.
Bad advice on an exercise message board can be dangerous. I am glad you are just taking it all in stride and absorbing what is useful to you.

Yes, that's what I'm doing. Face to face is best but message boards are what we have at the moment and it's best when used the right way! Yes, I've found it helpful.
Regarding the deadlift, while it is important to use good form in any movement, it is particularly important to have good form in the deadlift and there are a number of things to keep in mind. With that in mind I selected the video below concerning the proper way to do the deadlift. I hope you'll watch it and apply what it says in your deadlifts. Stay safe.
How To Deadlift with Proper Form - The Best Technique Checklist and Common Mistakes
Thanks for the video. Which of the two would be for a beginner? My guess is sumo?
I would think that you could do either one as a beginner, depending on which one feels more right for you. Personally, I think the regular deadlift feels more natural. But that's me.

Maybe you're right, since legs are closer together.
Okay drill sergeant you seem to have all the answers. If you were my personal trainer I would fire you in a heartbeat.
You have zero knowledge of this person and her capabilities yet you tell her what she must do.
For the record I have been exercising my whole life and am fit. I also know how to injure myself, and how to succeed.
Yeah that was why I disagreed with it too.

The idea that there are only two people those than can and can't is wrong. There is a power with the word yet. You maybe able to do a deadlift, but it is ok to say you can't do it yet. It is also very good to list things you don't have the ability to do.
As for taking things literally, welcome to forums. Forums are absent it context and tone.

Yes especially with free weights. Issue with form during a free weight workout and you can hurt yourself and set yourself back.
Having a workout routine is important to avoid the risk of engaging in a particular exercise than the other. One of the ways you can achieve this is by establishing timelines for different works. While this sounds easily achievable, it is easier said than done.
