Title: soreness in lower back common?
Post by: PointerRyan on April 21, 2012, 09:52:11 pm
hey guys just a quick question, not sure if i'm doing stuff wrong but I do feel my lower back sore from every workout without fail. for first time my legs really dont feel any soreness after friday's workout, would normally feel my glutes.
here's what i did on friday:
jump squats
squats
deadlifts
abs
calf

here's what i usually do:
all the above without jump squats but with lunges.

I know lugnes hit your glutes hard, but shouldnt squats be hitting your glutes hard?


cheers

same happens to me, my legs feels more sore the day after I squat only if I work with at lest 7 reps per set; if I go too heavy with 3-5 reps, I dont get tired, the weight just becomes harder to move and at the next day legs arent sore.

When you feel your lower back sore, it is arching back?

well i started incorporating lunges again. Actualyl felt real good yesterday, but squat was shit. I'm guessing cause my lower back was a lil tired from something, woke up having that minor feeling. So i guess my back gave in before my legs do.

If you're talking about normally, i always try maintaining a straight back(i'm not those crazy flexible ppl who could arch in the first place, so i'd said archign wont be my issue), but might probably round a little once in a while.

Yesterdya was bad though. My middle back(lats?trapz?) was the weak chain in my squat. on my last rep, the 4th, i actually unconsciously rounded it as i was close to failing. even in deadlifts my middle back gives in , which i'm correcting of course.
