So I wanted to ask opinions on back braces. I'm a new EMT and I for whatever reason keep struggling with my posture when lifting. I know I need to work and practice it and have done so but I'm still struggling ever so slightly. I was considering trying out a back brace. Not long term, but just maybe to see if it keeps me in the right position until I get it on my own. Does anyone have any advice or even personal experience with this? Im open to anything that may be helpful. I don't want to be the idiot who harms myself or good forbid my partner or paitent. Thank you!

Hi all,
