Has little understanding of the sugden Member 677, 11338 posts SQ 165, BP 125, DL 220 510.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	Post Edited: 12.10.2014 @ 22:27 PM by PeteHodgson Now I'm back to regular deadlifting I'm finding my lower back is tight, which it hasn't been for a good while. Foam rolling doesn't seem to get to this area. Not sure if my old cheap roller isn't up to the job, or whether its best to use a tennis ball or something? What do you guys do for lower back tightness? Ta Edit: thinking of getting a new foam roller anyway. Any suggestions? One of the rumble type rollers maybe?

A couple of sets of five reps really helped me. stretches where you rotate your spine should help too where you lay on your back, lift your leg up and rotate your hips as to try and get your knee close to the floor. Best of luck man. After my back injury it tightened up like hell. Iknow how uncomfy it is.

Back is no where near as bad as it was a few years ago. Just want to keep on top of it now. This stuff will help. Ta

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260 637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq	I just do a few standing twists to make it 'crack' and it instantly feels miles better.

Ah yeah good point, still need a band for other stuff. Im currently doing quite a lot of hip and glute stretches, obviously mot enough though
