A member asked:
After doing back squats with weights above 250lbs, i have minor pain in my lower back the next day. is this normal or a sign that something's wrong?

Less weight: This is your body telling you to back off somewhat on the weight. It would be best to back down the build up slowly. It would be good also to work with a trainer to make sure that you are doing the squats properly.
