Lifting a heavy object, whether it’s a box or laundry basket or even a small child, can injure your lower back if not done correctly. We all know about bending at the knees, but what about when you walk the object somewhere else? In this video, Point Performance’s Michal Tekle demonstrates how to bend from the hips, lift a box, turn, and bring the box elsewhere without straining her back muscles. Rather than twist your body as your turn, you should walk and turn with the box to avoid pulling a back muscle.
