Maybe your flexors weren't used to that position and not stretched. What you can do is grab on to a poll and squat down and hold yourself there to stretch everything
I had that problem once, it was because I had been trying to "inflate" my chest with air, rather than "inflate" my gut region to increase IAP, which put strain on my flexors. Try putting on a weight belt around your belly button area, breathe in, and push out on the belt (do this "push out" to get out of the deep bottom position).
If your lower back rounds at the bottom b/c of this, increase flexibility in the hamstrings/legs until it doesn't round.
@irishlax13 Partly correct. However Hamstrings aren't a major factor in Olympic back squats. Maybe powerlifting squats but not olympic. Its mainly hip flexors/Glutes. The pain can fade away with a good warmup (third world squat/goblet squat)
AT LAST. a vid which shows how to squat properlyy!!!
