If something
is too heavy, ask for help!!!
Never
twist with a heavy object. Swivel your hips and shoulders to turn.
Whenever
you have the choice, always push an object instead of pulling it to keep your
back straight.
While
sitting at your desk, your thighs must be parallel to the floor and your feet
flat on the ground to ensure the most comfort and least amount of stress on
your low back.
