| Apr 9, 2023 at 6:58 | comment | added | David Scarlett | @FeRD that's why I said "despite correct technique". The adage about lifting with your legs rather than your back is cautioning about listing posture (i.e. different technique) rather than being able to use different muscles despite identical posture. | |
| Apr 8, 2023 at 18:08 | comment | added | FeRD | I mean... if you can "lift with your legs, not with your back", then I'd push back some (heh... no pun) on the notion that you "can't" employ the wrong muscles to perform some work. Similar to poor lifting technique, I can think of two different ways to use the muscles in my lower torso to push my arm against something. Sure, the arm's only moving because it's attached to my torso, and I'm moving the whole thing. But it's still moving, despite the arm muscles being uninvolved for anything more than bracing, and certainly not doing the work of actually moving the arm. | |

This should not be the green tick answer. | |
