When you plant, always bend your knees as much as possible, and always keep your elbows inside your knees if you screef. It will help your lower back a lot

Hello from Germany! Glad to have found your hints to stay healthy with this job. Thank you very much!

Super helpful. Saved me so much pain. Thank you!!

This is so helpful and informative! Thank you

My name is Patrice vallée...and i was the master of that ''short shevel'' ... respect to ''all planters'' 😊👊🌲☀️😎☀️🌲👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊

well, lots of good advice...I think the shovel is too short; means having to be bent over more, but I use a staff so I am biased already. padded glove on the shovel handle, glove with hockey tape on the tree hand...maybe not biomechanics but padded shovel hand is kind of a requirement for me. After a box of trees her tree hand will be pretty bloody and beat up. Nothing here about using your foot-leg-body weight to open a hole. Big muscles in your legs, much bigger than your arms.

im a bit overweight at 5'4. do you think i'll be ok on the block? im fit and i work out but i am on the heavier side,i pass strength tests etc, also in my 30s

❤ Green Great family

This planter isn’t wearing gloves! Promote safety safer next time.

There are so many things wrong with how this person is planting trees
