Over the last 9 months I have gained a new perspective on the matter of lifting heavy things. I decided to take weight lifting seriously, hired a coach and went for it. I am now dead-lifting 200 lbs (90 Kg) and squatting the same. If you saw me walking down yhe street you'd have no idea. By the end of the year I should be at 315 for the deadlift.
Before doing this I never imagined someone could look "normal" and move this much weight. I thought this was the domain of guys with huge muscles.
Anyhow, a long way to say that workplace injury could probably be averted with training.
