Was setting up for some deadlifts at the gym and wrecked my lower back. Just bent over to set the barbell on the ground and felt a hitch.

Hoped it would go away overnight with some pain meds and a muscle relaxer but it's worse today. I can barely fucking walk. Fuck me.

Any tips on preventing lower back injuries? I have been trying to do back extensions on a machine. Probably not as often as I should I guess.

I came here to tell you the same thing. I have to warm up before I do work on the house, let alone something like dead lifts. Slow stretching is your friend.
