🌿 Yard Work = Workout 💪
Pulling weeds or lifting heavy bags (like mulch) can put serious strain on your back if done wrong ❌
If you’re bending from your back… your spine is taking the hit.
Try this instead:
✔ Keep your back straight
✔ Hinge at the hips (not your mid-back)
✔ Bend through your legs when lifting
✔ Keep the load close to your body
✔ Use a stool or support when weeding—but still hinge forward, don’t round
Protect your spine while you get the job done 💪
Your yard will look great… and your body will feel even better 😎
That’s a wrap on our yard work series—hope these tips help you stay pain-free this season! 👀
