Meant to say I thought I had mpsuhed myself too much on deadlifts, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

i have experience with the light red part.
i noticed it is triggered by 2 things in my case:
1.when i dont work my back for over 4 days
2.when i do repetitive pushing motions like bench press and pushups

pullups did wonder for me and let me get rid of the pain for 3 to 4 days.Maybe try that along with neck stretches and see what happens.

Seconding pullups or rows for the upper part. You don't even have to go all that heavy.
Kettlebell swings also do wonders for my lower back.

I really apprechiate your guys help, however I am already doing pullups twice a week. Could this be a skeletal problem? I am not as read up on this as I should be, but I foam roll and have also starting to stretch recently.

in my case it is called "loss of cervical curvature" or "military neck" and it causes muscle spasms.
maybe consult an orthopedic or physio

I get pain in the same places. Start doing Foundation Training. Clears that right up. Beginner stuff is one YouTube, but the DVDs are best. Really amazing

I also live with thid pain but what has helped is finding my muscular imbalances through stretching and making sure I strengthen my muscles symetrically. Do this exercise before training and at home every now and then. It helped me a lot http://www.health.com/health/m/gallery/0,,20567817_4,00.html . Staying loose is also a priority. Get your hardened muscles and built up scar tissue massaged the fuck out if you can. I wish you well

hey anon, try out this video for back issues, it helped me.

The lower pain is due to your hamstrings, butt, and back are tight. When shit gets tight the surrounding shit has to make up for it. Stretch out correctly and lift lighter with better form. You can also do bodyweight days as well. For example Spider-Man push ups, lunges, sublime hip extension, etc. basic light stuff using the muscles differently focusing on form. The upper pain may be due to poor posture. Look at your front in the mirror. If yor thumbs rotate inwards that indicates you have tight rounded over shoulders placing more strain on other parts of you. This also indicates tight biceps and arms in general. Look up stretches based around your thoracic spine and shoulders as well as neck. Daily routine such as sitting or looking down can put an excess beating on yourself over the years. Most people don't seem to notice/care until they are in their 30s and it really shows dramatically when you are middle aged. I also like to foam roll.
