Do You Find Yourself....

[Dukkit]

Do you find yourself mentally challenging yourself to use perfect form during the day? Like say your at work and you need to pick up a box of something or take something off a shelf. While your doing whatever it is your doing, do you think to yourself. Okay straighten out the back, puff out the chest. bend the knees and lift straight up. Im a chef at an Italian Restaurant and so Im always lifting huge pots of sauces, soups. Produce, Poultry and the like. Reason Im asking is because I was taking a big load of dishes back to the dishwashers last night and it was very heavy. I had to pick it up off the floor. I knew if I didnt do it correctly I would hurt myself. So I looked at it like a deadlift. Mentally went through with it in my head and then did it. I guess the grill guy was watching me and he made a comment to me after I had gotten it up. "you competing in the Worlds Strongest Dish Lifting Contest?" So just curious if anyone else does this. lol

Yep, I'll do that. Whenever something is moderately heavy Ill look at it like a deadlift.

Damn right I'd use perfect form. I'd rather hurt myself in the gym than picking up a stack of dishes.
