DO YOUR WARM–UP AND COOLDOWN
Do not skip a warm-up or cooldown. Lashing containers is like playing sports. Those who play sports without warming up violate a key injury prevention principle. Actively warming up improves blood flow, increases muscle strength, and enhances joint mobility, reducing injury risk. Cooling down aids muscle and joint recovery and helps regulate blood circulation to match your heart rate.
wear the gloves
Your hands are very vulnerable to fractures and bruises at certain jobs. Container lashing is certainly one of them. That’s why you should wear impact gloves to protect the most vulnerable parts of your hand. A special impact protection made of flexible synthetic material absorbs the energy of impacts on hands and fingers. Injuries are often less severe or can even be prevented altogether.
AND BOOST YOUR POWER
Exercise regularly the body parts that are more susceptible to overuse, such as your hand, wrist, forearm, and shoulder muscles. This will help you improve your range of motion and strength, reducing the chance of overuse injuries.
“I would recommend the lashing tool to anyone. You never want to go back using another piece of equipment.”
Matthias, Antwerp container lasher
