unbareable lower back pumps

I have quads tomorrow. I am gonna try stretching quads in bt sets. I am on caber now but will switch to adex see if tht helps.

Careful, streaching quads between sets can lead to tearing at the knee. Strech you hips instead.

Low back pumps = tight quads.

Try stretching (hold for at least 60 sec per side and TIME it) your quads between sets and you may get some relief.

This was recommended to me by a physical therapist and has really helped.

I always thought it was from tight hams/glutes. usually causes the butt-wink at the bottom. This causes the erectors to do more work and are dangerous.

Taurine and potassium help a bit. BTW the OP is talking back pumps, not back problems...I have a bad back and have experienced both issues.

This. If you are going to keep using anything that causes water retention, you will need these. I got horrible back pumps when on a Test/Var combo. Almost couldn't finish my workout.

I read a while back that large amounts of taurine will eliminate lower back pump. I was using a russian human grade d-bol a few years back that was very strong, and @ 50mg a day, I would get back pump so bad @ the gym I couldn't ever finish a workout. When I started the taurine supplementation, I was able to get through em. Can't remember the dosing tho.

Second this, and I also have a ruptured disc along with two herniations (hello to you heavy ass rucks and airborne ops at 250+). Dbol and Tren always seem to give me back pumps, no matter the work going in, but Taurine at 3000mg ED (2000mg immediately post workout) seems to settle them down. I can definitely tell when I miss taking it, and don't notice much of any shin or back pumps if I stick to the regimen.
