Low Back Tightness During Deadlifts https://themovementfix.com/low-back-tightness-deadlifts/ https://themovementfix.com/low-back-tightness-deadlifts/#comments Tue, 21 Feb 2017 04:28:24 +0000 https://themovementfix.com/?p=27446 When an athlete complains of low back tightness after a workout that has high rep deadlifts, kettlebell swings, or cleans/snatches (some sort of hip hinge movement) we have to figure out why that is happening.

There are many reasons this can happen, but one in particular I find quite frequently is when they round their low back during the last few inches of each rep (over and over and over again).

This can be a new lifter, but usually I see this complaint with this causeĀ in people who have been lifting for a little while.

The main considerations are torso angle and shin angle. The alteration of those two variables is what will be the main way you can tell which joints are being loaded more and in which way.

Where you use a ball and making sure you aren't actually pressing on a nerve is important.
