Many people hurt their backs when they try to lift heavy things from thefloor. It is easy to hurt your back muscle (肌肉) when you try to pick up aheavy thing.

If you bent over, themuscles in your lower back can become hurt very easily. If you keep yourback and hips straight, the muscles are stronger, because they hold uptogether. The other muscles can then help the lower back muscles.

As you lower yourself, try to get as close to the thing as you can, put oneknee on each side of the thing. Remember at all times to keep your backstraight. Put your hand under the thing that is in front of you, between your

knees.
