[QUOTE="jumpman23, post: 1779913, member: 40276"] Ive always said the reason any drivers backs hurt isn't from the lifting as much as it is from up and down the steps all day and sitting in that dam seat all day. Most drivers who have done this job for a long time know how to lift and know their limits and the procedure on how to eliminate lifting as much as possible. Granted the people like our buddy IVE who has a bulk route and has for many years, they do stress their backs more than others. The things that have helped me the most over the years is my inversion table, as soon as I get up and right before I go to bed, and chiropractor when I feel the need to go and a deep tissue massage every few months or so, helps big time in my opinion anyway. Do I still have some back pain sometimes? Of course but that's just natural with this job and getting older obviously. Remember your body is your best friend on this job, and you only have 1 body and only you know what works for it and how much you can push it. [/QUOTE]
