I'm basically 40 and deadlift in the 700s pretty frequently. You can bulletproof your back if you have the will

I'm working on it, but a lot of my issues stem from repetitive motion injuries.

I don't know how some people do it. The max I can do without being incapacitated in bed is like 185 lbs, which is a farcry from what I heard you should be able to deadlift twice your weight.
