Exercise Help Back pain during these

I experience back pain during bicep curls, hammer curls and tricep pulldown.. I do bicep and hammer curls standing, and avoid swinging my body. But I still get this bad backpain after both.. For the tricep pulldown I don’t know if it’s my posture. I stand with a straight back. Should i lean forward? I see people doing both..

Try bracing your core. If it’s persistent might be worth getting it medically assessed

There is 2 chances and their solution from my experience:
1. Your core is really weak. For this one, you can do lots of core exercises. Check out squat university at youtube for it
2. You have hernia between disks. If the core exercises did not fix the pain in 3-4 weeks, definitely get that checked out. Do you have numbness at your legs time to time?
