Childsplay......

During my  NEBOSH class, I got this video  from my tutor Steve Gill on good manual handling techniques and how children naturally  obey these simple techniques in the playground.

Wow! its amazing how these kids do this ...... As kids ,they realize that their lumbrae vertebrae isn't fully mature to support heavy load so they unconsciously squat to pick up objects and also support the load with their body.

 We all should become like little children. The effects of strain from continuous bending and twisting on our spinal cord may not be noticed immediately but as time goes on ,we begin to notice it.

 Take good care of your back... 

 I hope you enjoy this video!
Have a great weekend!!
Living healthy!!
