Choosing a Lifting Posture: Squat, Semi-Squat or Stoop
Manual Handling involves the lifting, carrying, pushing and pulling of materials and objects [1]. Training in safe handling techniques is a recommended way to reduce risk factors associated with manual handling within the working environment, particularly the lifting of low-lying objects as this has long been associated with an increased risk of lower back injuries [2]. However, manual handling...
متن کاملSquat, stoop, or something in between?
This article addresses the empirical and theoretical bases for recommendations regarding lifting technique. Current knowledge regarding the potential mechanisms of injury due during lifting is reviewed. Lifting from postures involving extreme lumbar vertebral flexion, (approximately 60 degrees of lumbar flexion, characterised by absence of electromyographical activity in erector spinae) has the...
متن کاملStoop or squat: a review of biomechanical studies on lifting technique.
OBJECTIVE To assess the biomechanical evidence in support of advocating the squat lifting technique as an administrative control to prevent low back pain. BACKGROUND Instruction with respect to lifting technique is commonly employed to prevent low back pain. The squat technique is the most widely advised lifting technique. Intervention studies failed to show health effects of this approach an...
متن کاملLower extremity joint kinetics and lumbar curvature during squat and stoop lifting
BACKGROUND In this study, kinematics and kinetics of the lower extremity joint and the lumbar lordosis during two different symmetrical lifting techniques(squat and stoop) were examined using the three-dimensional motion analysis. METHODS Twenty-six young male volunteers were selected for the subjects in this study. While they lifted boxes weighing 5, 10 and 15 kg by both squat and stoop lift...
متن کاملبررسی حداکثر قدرت ایزومتریک تولید شده در سه وضعیت استاتیک باربرداری
Background: There is considerable professional debate over which technique is the best for lifting. The aim of this study is to compare three static lifting styles, the stoop, semi-squat and arm lift, using maximum isometric voluntary contraction (MIVC) as one indicator for recommending a lifting style. Methods: Thirty healthy women (mean age: 22.37 years) participated in this quasi-experiment...
