Deadlifts are excellent as previous posters have said. If you aren't doing squats, then consider that. The lower back is necessary for stabilization during a barbell squat, and it gets used quite heavily. Also, straight-legged deadlifts and good morning are very good.

Dont underestimate the importance of floor exercises for the lower back. They are great for a warmup and can prevent injury. Add some heavy ankle weights and they can be a body shaper as well. I wouldnt do any standard lift routines for lower back unless I did my floor exercises first...............take care................Rich
