This is going to sound so freaking cliche but going to the gym regularly keeping your abs and back in decent shape and keeping in mind to not lift with JUST your back could help push those problems out further and maybe keep ‘em to minimum. No escaping being bent over 6-8 hr a day tho 😂

Mad respect to you sir. As a small buisness owner with a fleet of equipment and trucks- it is extremely rare and hard to find a guy like you.

You can tell they just wanna go home and don’t wanna be here working. BUT YOU SIR ARE AWESOME!! Keep up the good and hard work. You’ve got a fan right here rooting for you!! 💯

Bro for real, be careful with your back. It’s not worth it. I gave too much at a job in my early 20’s and herniated 2 lumbar discs. The surgery was botched and failed causing severe nerve damage. I couldn’t move my legs for a few days. Now I’m on disability playing video games all day (gets boring real quick) relying on pain meds to get out of bed. And the place I worked at went out of business. I want to be able to work so bad, I feel worthless. Just be safe please.
Don't feel worthless! You did what you could with your skills. Ask for retraining from the Rehabilitation Commission. Tell them you have a strong work ethic and you have the motivation to accomplish things! ❤
You're lucky to have a strong back, I can tell by looking at it. I have scoliosis and my back hurts me all the time and now at 28 years old it's hard for me to mow my small lawn with a push mower it hurts my back so badly.
I had a junk mower and I fixed the handle bar but after it was so low it made my back hurt so much when we used it. I have a push mower now too but its the electric Dewalt one. The thing is so light and rolls so smooth you dont even need self propulsion, which they make a version with it as well. My yard is a huge hill too. Im also 28 and have some problems woth my lower back. Most mornings I wake up and Im so stiff I barely can move. Ive tried different beds and everything but cant figure it out.
I am a utility worker and there are certain specialty tools that I have duplicates of because I occasionally forget a tool on a job. That way I can complete the next job and then go back for my tools.

Mr tyre doctor must have insane core strength he makes all his big tyre jobs look easy I tried it a few days ago and knocked it on the head called a pro
I worked at a blasting mat company and we were set for transport tires. I've seen guys twice your size last a day. Most guys that lasted were your size. 8 to 12 hour days sort out the loafers from the workers when tires are involved.

71yrs. young ,still bustin these tires . Start saving as much money as you can now . Then you won't have work after retirement. Oh BTW that's called a " slide hammer " & they're hell on your shoulder & elbow .
I have the answer for your question. You start losing your abilities to be an "Industrial Ath " around 50-55. I'm a tire vet too, and when you work for a corporate tire shop such as Goodyear Wingfoot, they put you out to pasture without a second thought. Quit now while you still can.
What you do has a high value for the industry. If you're good at it keep your prices up. Make sure you're charging enough money for the job you're doing.
