P.S. In this discussion we've introduced you to some basic concepts of "static" posture like sitting and standing. In a future installment we'll talk about "posture in motion", commonly known as body mechanics. Body mechanics refers to how we position our body to perform movement activities like pushing, lifting or carrying. And just like good static posture, "good" body mechanics will allow one to work and play more efficiently and with less stress on any one body part.
