    I’m 40 next year. This year I’ve switched jobs after 16 years of mainly sitting in a chair looking at synchroniser rings for gear boxes.

    The new job has a lot more lifting involved and no chairs. I’ve had so many aches in my back, shoulders and right limbs since I started.

    This week I picked something heavy up and put it down on a bottom shelf. My back popped. I saw stars. My brain felt a bit funny for an hour or so afterwards.

    Luckily I managed to pop the disc back by hanging by my arms from a low bar, and massaging the hurt muscles.

    Lift with your legs, not your back!

    I too feel like this meme is a decade early, but I do feel the meme.
