Lower back injuries are very common at this time of year when the snow is flying.

Don’t fall into the category of “I’ll use snow shovelling as my exercise”.

You should exercise with focus on full body workouts so that when you do shovel, injuries are prevented.

????????????????:

????It all starts with a strong core.

????Use your legs and transfer that energy up through your core, into your shoulders.

????Focus on breathing (exhale when lifting the snow).

????Take breaks when needed.

????Wear proper footwear, jacket, hat and gloves.

????Drink water before, during and after.

????Stretch each muscle group after you shovel (30 second hold per stretch).

????Don’t be a hero, ask for help if you need it.
