Does heavy lifting cause lower back pain?

Answer:
Heavy lifting does not have to lead to lower back pain if done properly. It is also beneficial to do lower back strengthening excerises regularly if one knows that the lifting will be done on a regular basis. It is best to bend down and lift the package as one straightens up to avoid the strain on the lower back.
