I like the way it was presented

[@DaltonHBrown]

My boss showed this today in our safety meeting and that "bend and snap" reference sent me 😂

[@rsm307studios]

Hi everyone! Thank you for watching. This video on back injury prevention has been highly requested! Since I'm not an expert in musculoskeletal disorders, I partnered with WorkRight NW's Doctor of Physical Therapy Chantel Gorton to help bring you key tips to preventing back injuries both on and off-the-job. Thanks for your requests!

[@hidheg]

[@davee893]

Wait wtf? She said a fun science fact about the crane thing!!!! That was so bad ass and reminded me about physics girl :3 idk y that excited me but it was cool

[@maliksutton6634]

So many injuries occur from heavy lifting and pulling especially in construction and hands ob jobs. One advice I have learned is bend your legs while lifting.

[@dumpsterfire6351]

Lift with legs not back Learned this way to late

[@maliksutton6634]

@@dumpsterfire6351 thank you for sharing this and I also found this helpful.

[@AllySafety]

Another great tip!

[@harleyehuffinejr2432]

Great information thank you very much . Can you do a video on STP Stop Think Plan. I appreciate your videos and your time.

[@AllySafety]

Sure! I hadn't considered that one yet but I'll add it to the list. :)

[@598victor]

Is the annotation on the far righthand side of the diagram @3:40 correct? "Bending over lifting 1lbs, 20"..."

[@karmacounselor]

Having your knees locked causes the curve of the lower back to become exaggerated. This puts stress on your spine, over contracting the spinal erectors and other muscles of the low back, increasing pain in the area, as well as making it more difficult to engage your core muscles. (quote from Philamassages)

[@michelledorch7588]

some people just out of shape and they complain of a back injury

[@dumpsterfire6351]

8 bolts and 2 disk implants here. Navy = do more with less 😖

[@AllySafety]

Ooooh, that sounds painful!
