My lower back is taking a shit kicking. I'm working on building my posterior chain and of course I'm compensating by doing much more lower back work than I need do. I found myself doing almost straight leg deadlifts today during my deadlift session. On my third set I started to focus on pulling with my legs rather than my lower back. Here's what I did.
Deadlifts - 6 sets/5 reps/345lbs.
Lat Pull Downs - 3 sets/6 reps/175lbs, 190lbs, 220lbs.
Barbell Shrugs (with straps) - 3 sets/6 reps/315lbs, 365lbs, 365lbs.
Sit Ups - 4 sets/12, 12, 12, 8 reps.
I know things will get easier and I'm chopping at the bit to do singles. I'm not quite ready, maybe in a couple of weeks.
