Could be all that planking before all those deadlifts.
Seriously, though, good work.

I do those planks just to activate my abs And it was only two sets of planks. The bodyweight one barely counts. Later that evening I discovered I was flexing my abs insted of arching my back so that could be the problem. Sometimes I get these silly ideas how to "improve" my technique which is already fine.
