How to Use Your Backpack Correctly

Even the best ergonomic backpack can cause discomfort if not used correctly.

Here are some tips to ensure comfortable use:

#1 Use Both Straps:

Always use both shoulder straps to distribute the weight evenly across your back. Using one strap concentrates the weight on one side, which can cause discomfort and lead to poor posture.

#2 Don't Overload:

Avoid carrying more than necessary. As a general guideline, your backpack should not weigh more than 10-15% of your body weight.

#3 Pack Smart: When packing your backpack, place the heaviest items as close to your back as possible. This helps maintain balance and reduce strain on your back.
