If you want a very good overview of what causes lower back pain in the general population, then you should read this article by the House Call Doctor “What Causes Back Pain”. Among physically active individuals, lower back pain most commonly occurs as a result of the following:
Picking a weight off the floor or setting one down incorrectly.
Bending from the back rather than bending from the knees.
Performing a high amount of impact based movement before the body has warmed up, or before the body is fit enough to absorb the impact.,
Repeatedly bending and extending the low back by doing hundreds of crunches or low back extensions, two popular exercises that can be over-utilized.
Exercising on equipment that is not properly set-up. Whether on a bicycle or weight training machine, one of the most common errors is improper seat height. For more on seat height, read the article “How to Use Weightlifting Machines.”
