What is body mechanics?

Body mechanics refers to the proper use of the body to prevent injury and stress on muscles, bones, and joints. It involves maintaining proper alignment and balance while performing daily activities such as lifting, bending, and standing. Good body mechanics requires a combination of posture, movement, and strength training. Some important aspects of body mechanics include using your legs to lift heavy objects, keeping your spine in a straight position, and avoiding twisting or bending at the waist. Practicing good body mechanics can help prevent back pain, strains, and other injuries.
