Lifting heavy objects – avoiding injuries
Here are some steps to follow to avoid back injuries:
- Keep a wide base of support and always make sure your feet are shoulder-width apart.
- Now is the time to lift the object – squat down as close to the object as possible.
- Make sure to keep good straight posture; do not twist your body, do not lift bending forward, and lift slowly the item.
- Hold the item close to your body, and do not lift the item above your shoulders.
- Use feet to change direction – do not twist your body.
- Set down the object by squatting with your knees and hips only.
- You may also consider buying heavy lifting support belt – it certainly can help if you straggling with back pain.
