LEARN TO
LIFT CORRECTLY
There are probably a lot more
lifting jobs around the house
each day than you realize. And
many more cases of hernia, particularly with men, than you •
imagine. How about just mov­
ing the furniture, heavy pack­
ages, setting up the extension <
ladder, changing the storm win­
dows and screens, getting the
boat in the water? The way to?
avoid hernia and back strain is
to make safe lifting a jiabit. j
The right way is to get close
to the load, bend your knees*1
keep the back straight, theni
lift — using only the leg and
arm muscles. Get help on heavy
or bulky loads.
