You got the spirit, but everyone - do NOT do this if you’re extremely out shape or don’t know proper form. Lift with your legs first and only.
Of all the possible exercises to start with, deadlifting is by far the most likely to permanently damage your back. If you need to start small, start with core and trunk exercises like crunches and squats.

If deadlifts are too dangerous I don’t think squats will be a good idea either. I would just like everyone to know I started, no experience, with a pretty messed up back, with deadlifts and nothing happened because I was reasonable and took everything slow. Don’t be afraid of them.

That’s fair! It does all come down to taking things slow
