Are you ONLY doing side bends, As in no other exercises at all? If so there's your problem.
Why not try raising your legs will hanging on a bar? It is also a very effective exercise, and it does not stress the lower back that much.
Doing a lot of oblique work is actually a TERRIBLE idea. It'll make your waist bigger.
What happens when you exercise a muscle? It grows.
Do you want a bigger and blockier waist?
I wouldn't do any oblique work at all man. Your obliques get more then enough stimulation when doing big compound movements like squats, overhead press etc.

I don't work obliques directly at all. Just work your entire core to keep things balanced. The obliques will pop once you are lean enough.
