Is it still a problem now? I have not checked this thread in a while so I missed the posts.

I have a theory that it is due to the shoulder shrugs I am doing. Perhaps the weight is too heavy and it is compressing my discs? Or am I actually feeling this kind of pain due to some other cause? Or maybe its a muscle that I don't know about?

My core and back are already pretty strong. I have been working out on and off for around 4-6 years.

Recently started the Doug's 4 day split muscle building routine about 3 months ago. I have been skipping the Friday leg workout as my legs are already at the size I want them to be (maybe even a little bigger).

PLEASE ADVISE!!!
I do not believe its from the shoulder shrugs. What are you doing for your back?
