Figure 6.5 Stagger stance: (a) front view; (b) side view.

Using a stagger stance is one of the two primary techniques that we emphasize. The stagger stance takes a considerable amount of strain off the neck and lower lumbar spine by promoting a more neutral (balanced) pelvic girdle position. The larger shoulder and hip muscles support the body, rather than just the smaller muscles and joints of the spine. The stagger stance facilitates shifting your weight so that you can keep items close to you and reduce the load on the spine.
