[QUOTE="cantwin69, post: 246185, member: 11677"] >>The object you were lifting, was it an over 70? Was it outside your end range motion? Did you twist instead of pivot? Did you use two hands firmly on opposite corners?<< This is exactly what I did- In this order: 1. I got close to the box. 2. I bent at the knees. 3. I tested the box for weight and shifting contents. 4. I grasped opposite corners of the box. 5. I lifted with a smooth steady motion - I didn't jerk. 6. I stepped and pivoted - no twisting was involved. 7. I used existing equip-I let the belt do the work. 8. I adapted to the hot weather which caused sweaty hands because I had my gloves on. [/QUOTE]
