inSitting out with a strained back, let's talk lifting safety
So are we all just trying not to throw our backs out picking up socks now? Tbh, it's kinda hilarious how much thought goes into not being lazy with light loads. Like betty_west40 said, catching yourself in the moment is key, but derekflores isn't wrong about the autopilot thing. Ngl, I've seen guys on sites who can lift heavy all day but strain something grabbing a tool off the ground. It's like your body betrays you when you stop paying attention for two seconds. Maybe the real trick is to just never relax, ever, which sounds terrible.
