Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

If you're someone who knows how to lift at the waist you're probably still keeping your back straight, like you would in a Romanian deadlift.
Yea, that's usually the case when something is actually heavy to be fair. Always a good idea to make sure they're the muscles that tighten first!
Also to add more context; I specifically strength train the 'bad' way of lifting things, as it were. Like hyperextensions, bird dogs, superman, etc, so I'm not joking when I say I lift some "lighter" things in a 'bad' way when convenient. lol
... though if I feel back strain start to build up, you bet your ass I'll reposition! Only a fool (like younger me) just goes for a lift without paying attention to what the body is saying.
