Why is lifting something and moving your back to left/right bad for you?

Short answer is the spine is really good at supporting weight straight up and down, but the muscles that keep your spine centered forward are much weaker and smaller. The momentum of swinging a load one way and then moving it back will pull and tweak those smaller muscles causing spasms.
