I think one of the most essential aspects not covered in this discussion is the importance of recovery. Foam rolling, stretching, getting a full 8 hrs of sleep and also limiting stress. If you don't sleep well or are under a lot of stress, you muscles tend to spasam more and remain inflamed.
I wish i was aware of this video 2 days ago. Noticed my partners at the gym squatted with a straight back, I always lean forward but i do not feel any discomfort. However thinking it was bad form I tried to keep a straight back and now am in severe pain. I must be one of those people whose body functions better with a littler bend In a squat
Any time you make a sudden and significant change in form, it will be something your body isn’t used to! Even if it’s switching to “better” form. Doesn’t mean it’s bad- just means your body probably wasn’t prepared for the change!
I don't know if this was already mentioned in the video, but I fixed my lower back pain with squats by recording myself doing squats and seeing if the lowest part of the squat was where my butt was pushed out the most. When my lower back was hurting I noticed that when I was going up from the squat, my butt would push out more than when I was at the bottom of it. I hope this makes sense to whoever is reading it and helps them out.
I think that the main key to avoid low back pain and injuries is to maintain the lumbar lordosis. If you squat too low, and lose your natural lumbar lordosis, you are exposed to a low back injury. I destroyed my L5-S1 because I didn't get that concept. Not many videos talk about the most obvious things in squat and if you are a noob you can easily get injured.
I want to understand why my back pain vanished completely with squating. I had a back pain i triggered after training for football. It happened the first time and left on its own after about two days. Then I trained again, and it refused to go for about three months. I did research and felt that it was triggered by weak core muscles. So i began to do planks, and it gave me temporary relief. When i began gyming and squating two to three times a week, it completely vanished after two weeks of it. I just want to know what happened to my back. I also did an X-ray scan, and the result revealed no fracture incurred, and they suggested muscle spasm.
When i lift heavy my back doesn’t hurt. But whenever i do more reps with lesser weight, it feel like my lower back is about to break and the pain would last for 20-30 mins. How may i solve that?
This is due to the lactic acid build up, supplementing with beta alanine will help reduce the bulid up. Also, decrease total working volume and allow 3-8 mins between sets.
It's been a month a month since im facing Lower backpain, it occurs when i lean to lift dumbbells, it also hurts passively when i lift something lying on ground, sitting hours while studying, What should i do in this situation? Its been a month, i stopped doing squats and deadlift
Good question. I would add them into your routine as a warm-up drill before squats or lower body movements. Drop the weight on the squats substantially, and keep practicing the zombie squats until that more upright position carries over into the back squat. Basically, get super good at "zombie-squat form" and re-build up your squat weight from there. Does that make sense?
Yes, thank you very much!! So I have zombie squatted about 2 weeks and it feels much better without low back pain, and then when I try back squat it feels awkward. I will continue front squats and hopefully my back squat will eventually just click. But if not, at least front squats is better than no squatting at all.

@@fungishroom9241 Good tip! Recording yourself can be really helpful
Great video
Thanks!
Will try to use that tip, though I'm unsure as to how to be straight(er) without falling back.

Either way thank you! For this
Of course, hope your back is feeling better!

I'm glad!

How many is much reps for you? I get that hurt when doing like 6-10 reps
Same for me
Same bro 😫

@@championerra1400 Thanks mate, i will try it
It's been a month a month since im facing Lower backpain, it occurs when i lean to lift dumbbells, it also hurts passively when i lift something lying on ground, sitting hours while studying,
What should i do in this situation? Its been a month, i stopped doing squats and deadlift
Bruh do uh get the solution??
In the same dilemma..any solution will help
Same here… i miss doing squats
Question: If your first advice works and zombie squat feels better, what should I do next? How can I apply this in order to fix my back squat?
Good question. I would add them into your routine as a warm-up drill before squats or lower body movements. Drop the weight on the squats substantially, and keep practicing the zombie squats until that more upright position carries over into the back squat.

Or you can lower the weight a bit and get more reps with control than power lifting
