If you suffer from any kind of back pain or discomfort while gardening, there's no need to worry. You can still enjoy time in the garden by taking rests when necessary, maintaining a good posture when you can, and using forks that have been designed with comfort in mind. The Fiskars Ergo, for example, has an angled handle that puts less pressure on your body, reducing strain on the wrists and letting you keep your back straighter and more comfortable. It also helps to invest in a good quality garden fork that requires less effort to actually break into the ground and dig, like the Truper 30293.
