💪🛒 The 1-Trip Grocery Challenge
You know the rule.
No matter how many bags… it’s coming in one trip.
Left hand: 4 plastic bags cutting off circulation.
Right hand: gallon of milk + eggs balanced on top.
One rogue bag hanging from a pinky finger.
Core engaged. Pride on the line.
We’ve all done it 😅
But here’s the thing…
When you overload one side of your body, twist while stepping up, or hike your shoulder to keep a bag from slipping — your spine absorbs that stress. Repeated little strains like this can lead to tight shoulders, low back pain, and even headaches.
Your spine loves:
✔ Balanced weight
✔ Good posture
✔ Engaged core
✔ Bending at the knees (not rounding the back)
So next time? Maybe take two trips 😉
Or at least distribute the weight evenly.
And if the 1-Trip Grocery Challenge wins and your back loses…
We’re here to help.
