Final answer:

To prevent back injuries when lifting, always bend your knees, keep the object close to your body, and avoid twisting at the waist.


Explanation:

Three guidelines to prevent back injuries when lifting something:

  1. Bend your knees: Instead of bending at the waist, squat down using your knees to lift the object.
  2. Hold the object close to your body: Keeping the object close reduces strain on your back muscles.
  3. Avoid twisting at the waist: Face the direction you are moving without twisting to prevent back injuries.
