Back Injury Prevention (Foundries) - According to the National Safety Council and medical research, 20% of backaches are attributed to inflammation such as arthritis, 10% are due to actual back injuries and other miscellaneous causes, 70% result from degeneration of spinal discs. That's right; aging of the spinal disc material causes the most trouble and can cause extreme pain even from routine body motions. This program will explain how the back works so you'll have enough information to make the right choices on how to lift anything safely. We'll also discuss how strains and muscles work so you can prevent these types of back injuries also.

Topics included in this safety video are:  the mechanics of the back, discs, spinal cord, regular exercise, muscle strains, 10 to 1 ratio, and palm grip.
