    Yes, the sensation only occurs when the lower back is pressed – either while lying on the ball or I can replicate it by pressing with my thumbs. I have in the past sometimes suffered lower back/glute pain on the bike but that has always been a conventional sore muscle feeling, quite different from this shooting/electric sensation. On the other hand, both have been worse on the left side so it seems they may be related.

    Thank you for linking that glute smash video – I can already see that looks ideal! I’ll mix it into my routine starting this evening.

    Thanks Kaitlin for the advice. Perhaps I shouldn’t have used the word ‘diagnosis’ but I was wondering, since this sensation is quite unusual (as far as I’m aware), if it might stick out and sound familiar to anyone? I’ve since read that it sounds like sciatica.

    Following the video I will be mindful of my position on the bike and I will also continue my hip and glute exercises to see if these help.
