I diagnose and treat spine conditions daily, your symptoms are likely due to weak abdominal muscles (especially if you are carrying excessive weight up front). Focus on working on the stabilizing muscles in the abdomen and low back and it will improve. That tight feeling in the low back is due to constant muscle strain/fatigue, the abdominal and low back work synergistically to stabilize the entire upper body, when one is weak the other has to take up the slack and fatigues easily, this is why injuries associated with the spine occur (well, commonly, no exclusively).
