I’ve tweaked my lower while pulling last tuesday. I was in the 7th week of the program. So how do i adjust my program now. I performed all the upper body exercises (except pendlay rows) as usual. I squatted 250 for 5x5 on thursday without pain. But on Friday when i tried pulling 135 i felt that same pop in the lower back again. So should i just stick to the program (1@8 and back-offs). Or should i drop all the variations of my lower lifts and do 5x5?
I’d skip the top singles and lower the intensity of working sets. As for the variations, use the ones that your back tolerates.
