what in the h#ll is wrong with me back

[Ironman5151]

When I do leg extensions I usually do 4 sets of 30 reps with drop sets( ex - 100 for 10 reps, 70 for 10 reps, 40 for 10 reps)...1 set


My problem is when I get to about 15reps I start getting a horrible pain in my lower back. My movenemnt is really strick and super slow. By the time I get to only 10 reps, its really bad with a sharp pain right in the center of my lower back. As I try to finish my set it just hurts worst and worst. Its fuc***ing up my leg routine bc right when my legs really begin to hurt, my back pain takes over. After I stand up for about 30 secs it will go away and soon as I start again and get back to 15 reps left it starts again. My back don't bother me on squats or leg presses. Just leg extensions. The longer I hold at the top, it hurts even more....Anyone experience this? I tried explaining the best I can. Do I have a disk messed up or something? I have no idea but its driving me crazy bc I can't kill me legs like I want 2 . ????

my advice is quit goin so heavy on leg curls...they're just supposed to be warm up exercises...but if you really wanna focus on hams then do straight leg deadlifts. i hope this helps.
