Best Exercise To Improve Capability Of Handling Heavy Amps

@skids the scissor lift table won't protect your back.  You still have to get it on and off the table.  If you really want to use a piece of equipment to move it, you need an engine hoist.  https://www.uline.com/Product/Detail/H-8462/Cranes-Hoists-and-Trolleys/Hydraulic-Floor-Crane?pricode=WB9532&gadtype=pla&id=H-8462&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2oW-BhC2ARIsADSIAWr1eTxSx1O0rmxlZYJAGF5Tr0DjsLlDxgcT-kqS1w5ARuEZipZn8zwaAlnBEALw_wcB

This will let you pick it up, roll it around, and lower it into place on top of your stand.  You do need clearance for the legs to full under your stand which can be a problem.  However your amp is a relatively light weight for this piece of equpment so you should be able to extend the boom. 

I know you guys are gettng tired of me saying "I've done that..." but I've lived a full life.  I have set up a machine shop in my garage and have moved all the heavy equipment in by myself including a 2500 lb lathe and a 2000 lb milling machine.

Go to Jay's audio channel on YouTube and ask him - HE should be able to tell you! 

I am now 73 with a bad back. Moving heavy amps... not long ago I owned a 150 lb amp and moving it is simple. You use your brain. You break down what you must accomplish and then use leverage, gravity... and typically sliders and maybe a hand truck to accomplish it. I have never failed and not needed any strength or sprained my back.

Furniture sliders, some come with a little lifter ... like a really small teeter tauter that you step on to lift a heavy object so you dan slide it into position. 

Unboxing simply requires thought and rolling. 

Wood plank if you need to slide something into or out of a car.

It is simple. Just think.

Knock on wood I am in pretty good shape at 65. I hit the gym 5-6 days a week and work my body in all ways. Strong body and strong mind matters as you get older.  Physical and mental exercise is the key.  

My amp weighs 5 pounds and puts out enough power to drive most any speaker well. It excels sonically in pretty much every regard as well.

No desire or need for big heavy amps anymore thanks to modern technical innovations.

Lifting heavy objects requires strong legs core arms and upper body.  The whole Shebang.  I’d advise consulting a personal trainer for guidance on how to exercise and do it properly without causing injury if not sure. 

@carlsbad2 My intention with this table would be to slide the amp on to the lift table. Just food for thought.
