bad lower back pains while running.... please help.
hey everyone,
im haveing some lower back problems lately and i was hoping you could help.
i used to run regularly but in the last 6 months or so have changed my workout in order to put on wieght. i havent actually run in a couple of months and i have been lifting heavily. i decided to start running again every second day and i went for a 5km jog yesterday and it was agony in my lower back. really bad. i went for a jog last week and had the same problem.
im assuming it has to do with the lifting and i was wondering if there are any tips on form, excersizes or stretches that could help this problem. maybe im doing certain excersizes wich are detrimental? im on a 3 day slpit with 1 day rest.
now this is what my workout looks like at the moment without any cardio...
day 1 - chest and tri's
4 sets flat bench
3 sets decline bench
3 sets incline dumbell.
2 sets dips
4 sets overheads
4 sets french press
5 sets pushdowns
day 2 - Back and Bi's
4 sets rows
4 sets pulldowns
3 sets bent over rows
5 sets standing bbell curls
4 sets concentrations
2 sets overgrasp heaves
2 sets undergrasp heaves
day 3 - Legs and Shoulders
4 sets pull ups
4 sets bent over lats
5 sets DBell shoulder press
3 sets extensions
5 sets squats
4 sets 45degree press
4 sets hami curls
4 sets seated calf raises
3 sets standing calf raises
day 4 - rest
sometimes i will have another day rest depending on how the body feels. i usually find im not overtraining and my body recovers fairly quickly.
can anyone give me any tips from experience with lower back pain as a result of lifting or suggest anything after looking at my workout?
thanks very much all!

Was the pain in the center of your back like in your spine or was it around the muscles area not your spine?

I just wish you'd explain to me how :
4 sets pullups on your Shoulder / Leg day
4 sets bent over lats
has anything to do with shoulders / legs ??

Are you keeping your core area strong ?? Abs / Low back ??
I don't see any mention of working out those muscles. Sure squats help with the core a little bit, but nothing like stabilization exercises.

so in answer to your question pullups for shoulders are upright rows...
can you please suggest to me some exercises for core area?
and yeah ive really let my abs slip and im thinking that may be part of the cause for the back pain
