Lifting

• 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.
