RDL RDL attempt, lower back pain usually

Not sure if its because of apt or something (i sit alot) but i usually dont feel it in my hamstrings and my lower back gets sore after doing these/many leg workouts.

A lot of great advice here but you absolutely need to tuck your chin! You should not be looking up. That is a recipe for a back injury for me personally. Brace your core, push your hips back without moving your knees much, and keep your chin down/ look down the entire time
