Your most likely using too much weight as it is ruining your form. One person did say your lower back will be sore after squat day, it will but you should be able to tell the difference between a bit sore and HURT. Since you posted the thread jI figure you mean hurt. Drop thje weight and focus on dropping your butt back and keeping a strait back through the motion, if it rounds at all thats a problem! Bigger gains will come from correct form so start there!

The Back Squat trains your posterior chain more than anything. Glutes, Lower Back, Hamstrings as well as the Quads. The best assistance exercise for back squats is the Good Morning. Some hardcore powerlifting gyms train the good morning 90% of time and squat 10% of the time. The reason: No matter how good you get at squatting, the restricting factor in the back squat is always the lower back. This obviously means that lower back soreness if definitely expected after squats. *However* if you are still learning, you form is likely making it a lot harder on your back than needed. Pelvic rotation/back rounding needs to be eliminated with increased felxibility and you form needs to likely be improved. The onnly way to tell is with a video.

yes. i would recommend doing good mornings as well, they train your lower back which is key to doing squats. most people when beginning bodybuilding will have problems with weaker muscles when doing compound exercises. be patient and do not neglect these muscles. it's like initially i felt sore in my shoulders and triceps before my chests when i bench pressed. but after a month or so, i felt it 90% in my chest all the time. keep working at it. but make sure you watch your form as well.
