June 14, 2002, Newsletter Issue #58: Heavy backpacks

Tip of the Week

In order to minimize the stress on the back and shoulders, evenly distribute the contents with heavy items to the center of the pack. A padded waist strap is recommended to keep the weight of the pack near the body and to prevent it from swinging back and forth. Avoid large backpacks as there is a tendency to overload them.
