I was doing a golf lesson at my local golf club with instructor.

After hitting about 150 balls or something and driving back home in my car. I just had this terrible pain in my middle back / lower back.

My muscles are not like "super-weak" or whatever. I'm pretty fit average or better (percentile of age group 24 yrs) according to my personal trainer and recent fitness test.

The only muscle possibility seems to be imbalance. weaker back and abs muscles, in relation to my stronger legs and stronger arms and chest. Possibly...

I don't have much deformities that I know of!

Culprit could also be something in the golf swing.

I remember that the golf pro noted to me, that I raise my left heel at the backswing. It seems that many pro golfers do this also.

Could it be affecting the back pain issue though? Like a tilted hip turn causing pain of vertebrae? http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-instruction/2010-03/save-your-back-foley

Are you still having pain? Swinging a golf club seems to twist my back. Chiro straightens me back out and voila.

nah it went away next day.

But if I had gone playing 18 holes after 150 range balls, I couldn't have hit golf balls very well with the backpain.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
