Effects of helmets and postures (resting, moving boxes, prone shooting) on the subjective neck load and neck pain. They were rated with a visual analogue scale from 0 (no neck load), to 10 (intolerable neck load) or a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (intolerable neck pain). *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 indicate the posture effects versus sitting; #P < 0.05 and #P < 0.01 indicate the posture effects versus horizontal lifting;P < 0.05 indicates the helmet effects versus NH; §p < 0.05 indicates the helmet effects versus LH. All significances were verified by non-parametric statistics: Friedman test was used to identify the group differences with a Wilcoxon test as a post-hoc test
