don't let your lower back come off the pad when you are at the bottom of the lift.

to go deep on leg press with proper form you need adequate hip/leg flexibility.

every leg press and brand is different.
keep your butt and lower back pushed into the seat the entire time.
also, i only like to use the leg press at the end of my workout so i am already warmed up from squats etc

there could also be other reasons why your lower back hurts, and the leg press is just aggravating it.

Single leg, leg press, removes hip and lower back from equation and isolates more.

If you are hurting yourself you are doing it wrong, if you have good form but still hurt then lessen the weight.

How do you figure. Youre just translating some of the flexion forces into spinal torsion in the transverse plane.
