      Could using the Apex 2 exosuit alter the lifting technique in a way that increases risks?

      It May Actually Improve Posture

      From initial testing, users tend to adopt similar lifting kinematics with or without the exosuit.

      If anything, the Apex 2 may improve lifting posture because the device provides feedback to the user that helps deter slouching or poor lifting mechanics. We have had several users report this.
