Pain in the lower back
I worked out a lat exercise in the gym. The exercise was in the sitting position with the weight applied on the hand. I was supposed to bend and pull the weight. Suddenly pain in the lower back started.

It appears that you have pulled a muscle while working out. If your pain is limited to the bacl area only, then this is only a pulled muscle. If there is any pain down your leg, then there is a possibility of a slipped disc.
Take painkillers, keep mobile and use a hot pack on your back to relieve the muscle spasm.
