7Lifting
- 1. Stand close to the load with your feet spread
apart about shoulder width, with one foot
slightly in front of the other for balance. - 2. Squat down bending at the knees (not your
waist). Tuck your chin while keeping your back as
vertical as possible - 3. Get a firm grasp of the object before
beginning the lift. - 4. Begin slowly lifting with your LEGS by
straightening them. Never twist your body during
this step. - 5. Once the lift is complete, keep the object as
close to the body as possible. As the load's
center of gravity moves away from the body, there
is a dramatic increase in stress to the lumbar
region of the back.
