^^^^Definitely! Matter of fact I have a bad lower back and if deadlifts cause pain in that area it is during the descent that it happens. I would think the bar was lowering too fast and I would try to catch it and it would pull me out of position just like Sleazy said. I do the same thing. A controlled drop. That is something that was a problem for me and I completely forgot about it cuz as soon as I started doing what Sleazy is saying the problem went away.

If you're doing lighter weights with higher reps or whatever then you can do a slower descent but when you doing max sets I wouldn't worry about it.

Another thing I forgot to mention is tight hams, glutes, psoas/iliopsoas and back. That could lead to the back strain during deadlfts also so try to stretch these areas everytime you do lower body.

You also need a strong front section to stabilize the back so heavy ab work is necessary. I'd suggest dropping the weight belt on building up your deads in order to strengthen your core rather than artificially supporting it.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
