ABSTRACT
The ABS Advanced Training has a prerequisite; the trainer must have completed our Foundations of Training course and have had field-proven experience using our concepts within their industry. Exemplary communication skills in teaching through lecture, demonstrations and constructive critiques are a must. The advanced trainer also must be physically able to exhibit the advanced exercises of bending, lifting, carrying, and pushing as well as understand how to organize the ten-minute flex and stretch programs. The payroll deduction plan is offered so that employees and their families will have something in their libraries to watch, study, and practice until it is rote habit. Statistics have proven over and over again that the companies who have the best results in back injury reduction were the ones who implemented a comprehensive, long-term plan. Their back programs were more than just crisis intervention.
