Hey guys,
So I am having a problem. For the past two months about I have been to the gym a dedicated 6 days per week. One of the days I work out my back and another my legs. My problem is that I can't build my deadlift strength or stiff-leg deadlift strength at all. I am only lifting a total of twenty pounds on the deadlift and stiff-leg deadlift. I feel I am using proper form but my lower back gets so sore that I can't bend over to pick something off the floor and the feeling lasts well over a week. Recently it's been so sore that I have not been able to even do the deadlifts/stiff-leg deadlifts at all. I just wanted to ask you guys if you feel I am doing something wrong or if my back is just really week at this point. Should I maybe work out my back to build lower back strength some other way before doing the deadlifts? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks for looking guys
