Question with after-deadlifts-pain. I have been increasing weights each time as per SS program, and have got to the point where I can comfortably do the 1 x 5 using the weights at the previous 2 weeks (hung in there longer to perfect technique), now when I added 2.5kg each way (5kg in total) in yesterdays workout, I deadlifted 120kg for 3 reps and it strained my back. Its not a major pain, but its noticeably tender and tight and I will bring it up with my physio. Do you guys get this often? I bet its a technique issue, even though I pay a lot of attention to prevent my back rounding out. Do you think it could be the lower back muscles not developed enough to take the extra weight, hence overloading the spine?
