I think maybe it has to do with you giving too much force or something, but why do you end up being thrown back instead of if sort of balancing out when you realize it’s lighter than you thought?
In: Physics
You can use your legs to pick something up or your can use your back. Most often, people will use both. You are expecting more work than necessary so you position yourself in anticipation. As you put extra effort into the lift, it takes you further than expected – and now your back is in a position where you have less balance. It is in that moment of realize that you have lost balance, that your mind pays very particular attention, maybe even startled when you consider you were expecting to be balanced!
