Answer
Sounds like you might be suffering from a lumbar disc problem, and disc bulges or herniations can even affect people with strong core muscles. McKenzie exercises (spinal extension) exercises can help stabilize and strengthen the lumbar spine and would be a good start. Find a good chiropractor in your area to get an evaluation. Taking time off to let any injuries heal, physiotherapy, NSAIDs, massage, spinal manipulation, and using a lumbar support while lifting are also some options to consider.
