Fix Your Back Pain With One Small Step

Prevent, reduce, and even fix your back pain by taking one small half step backwards.  The traditional foot position of squatting and deadlifting may be the cause for your back injury.  Luckily there is a simple way to adjust that position that will let you be strong and effective on the fire ground and over the course of your career.

Firefighters get tasked with lifting heavy, awkward, and non compliant weight from the ground on a regular basis.  Your ability to do that over and over again for decades is what matters and this small adjustment can buy you some time.

The stagger or kickstand stance is a great way to work around the restrictions of your fire gear and avoid light duty.

Send this one to a firefighter or your favorite meat head who has back pain or is working on avoiding a back injury.
