Have you ever had a sore back after vacuuming the house? If so, I have a tip for what I do to protect my back while vacuuming.
As I demonstrated in the video below, most people vacuum by pushing with one arm and rotating your back. What most of us don't realize is that the combination of bending and twisting can really hurt your back!
What I like to do is think of my vacuum as a lawn mower. Keep the center of the handle against your abdomen or belly in the middle, and use your legs to do the work as you push your vacuum around the house.
