Its how you lift that matters. I've shoveled more snow than I care to recollect. When you lift the pile off the driveway to the lawn use a twisting motion with the abs and hips. Use the arms minimally

to start make a swath down the middle. Then start at the garage pushing half the snow to one side at first then half to the other. Move parallel to the swath. Maximum time shoveling minimum time walking. If there is a lot of snow start by walking close to the banks chucking some up before the initial swath. Trying to push a lot of snow while walking is a waste of time. The swath down the middle and pushing half each way makes it way easier. Fancy shovels are not really needed unless its a big bucket scoop for slush/huge snowfalls.
