Title: Potential cause of lower back pain?
Post by: D4 on April 20, 2012, 04:00:14 am

Usually on my heavy lower body days, I just go all out on squats.  This past Monday, I added BSS for the first time in a while.  I had some lower back tightness/soreness the next day all the way until today (Thursday).  During my playoff basketball game, my lower back was getting really sore/tight and it hurt a LOT to play.  I've done heavy squats + BSS in the past before, but never experienced this.

Something to note: I only did BSS on my left leg this week, because my left ankle is still recovering from a sprain and putting it back on the bench to do BSS for my right leg, was very irritating and aggravating on my left ankle/ couldn't use it to stabilize.

Could that have something to do with it maybe?

If not, what other potential reasons can there be for really right/sore lower back pain days after a lower body workout, and one that gets really painful during basketball.

Maybe you just tweaked it and you didn't immediately felt it. If that is so it has nothing to do with exercise selection.
