[quote=Anonymous]Lol. I guess I already do this kind of workout everyday because I walk a ton with a weighted backpack as a part of life. I’d say the key is investing in a backpack that is properly sized and distributes the weight on your body correctly. I’d go to a place like REI and try on several backpacks. I’m a woman with a short torso, so I specifically looked for backpacks that could adjust for that. The one I currently use can be adjusted so all the weight goes to my hips and chest, and no weight is on my back or shoulders. The hip belt and chest straps, and where they come across my body, are key for this. Because they are placed right, I can carry absurd amounts of weight without strain on my back, neck, shoulders, etc. But if I don’t have my hip belt and chest straps on, it’s game over.[/quote]
