Lifting Safely With Back Belts (Schools)

Lifting Safely With Back Belts - The vast majority of back injuries are preventable; however, many back problems are not the result of injury, but are the result of degeneration of the discs. Aging of the spinal disc material causes the most trouble and can cause extreme pain. What this means is that over the years, these delicate discs become worn and damaged. Think of all the times you lifted improperly, how you bend your back or twisted your back. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that if you abuse something, no matter how wonderfully it's constructed, it'll wear out. The more abuse it takes, the faster it'll wear out.

Topics covered in this safety video include: natural curvature, disc, basic principles, spine, ligaments, 10 to 1 ratio, and industrial back supports.
