The person’s center of gravity located in the pelvic area. This means that approximately half the body weight is distributed above this area, half below it, when thinking of the body divided horizontally.
In addition, half the body weight is to each side, when thinking the body divided vertically. When lifting an object, bend at knees and hips, and keep the back straight. By doing so, the center of gravity remains over the feet, giving extra stability. It is thus easier to maintain balance.
