Do you even lift?

Remember to lift with your lower back in a jerking twisting motion.

I remember when I first started mixing both my training schedules, in a terrible way, with little knowledge of what I was doing wrong-- my lower back was in pain for 3 and half months

What happened to your back?


If I sleep wrong or have weight/hold weight with my back slightly bent forward my backs starts to kill me. Not sure if its my spine or muscles in my back.

What happened to your back?

I'm pretty sure I know what I did to hurt my back, so I know how to avoid this for future. When I was getting ready to dumbbell press, the weights were on the floor and I was sitting on the far end of the flat bench. So I had to bend down left and right to pick them up. It's kinda hard to visualize but after doing that enough and also doing crunches, my back was screwed up. In future I'm just gonna place them straight in position so I don't need to bend down.
