    I recommend a backpack that has a waist strap too as it also helps to distribute the weight of the pack away from your shoulders. Also put the heaviest things closest to your body in the backpack.

    Ah interesting. I was that kid that always had the heaviest/largest backpack. My shoulders didn't hurt unless I carried too many textbooks. Never had a chest strap but I pulled on the straps at the end forward when walking which helped.

      Carrying it on one shoulder at a time or leaving unnecessary stuff so it gets lighter.

    REI sells the kit to make it with the buckles already on the strap. EASY to do it yourself with no gift. I just use a makeshift, no sewing. (The only disadvantage is that you have to put the gizmo in your pocket; it isnt sewn on.)

    Hi Matt, love your videos. This one in particular is very helpful as I do up to ten day backpacking with a 45 bs pack trips in the Sierras and am always combating shoulder and back grumbles in the evening. Have you thought about doing a series of videos dedicated to backpackers - training exercise to build all of the right muscles, legs, shoulders, back etc ?

    • @Uprighthealth
      @Uprighthealth  2 года назад

      Oof!
      I have not - I don't have the backpacking experience to credibly talk about what you should do to be a good backpacker. I have IDEAS about what might be helpful, but I'm definitely no expert!

    Thank you for another great video.
    Actually they're all great. A lot of times I feel " this is exactly what I need!". I'm 56 and everything hurts, hips, ankles, knees, to name a few.
    My question is: they're all great videos, they're all apply, which ones should I do on a regular basis?
    Thank you so much, and keep up the awesome work.

      Pick one or two that seem like good ones for you and work on them for 1-3 months. Then rotate in some new ones. Just keep picking some new things focus on every 1-3 months.

    Please don't say "chest strap", but can you tell me why my left backpack strap always falls off my left shoulder when it doesn't happen on the right?

    • @Uprighthealth
      @Uprighthealth  2 года назад +1

      That chest strap would "fix" the problem 😅... but also your left shoulder is probably sitting lower than the right.
      Or you load your backpack unevenly 😉

      I've tried every strap adjustment possible. The chest trap works, of course, but no amount of tightening on the left or right seems to keep the left strap on my shoulder.

    Why aren’t you talking about proper weight distribution.
    Heavy items closer to the straps (person’s back), making it closer to center of gravity.

      I was lucky enough to have a camping store give a class in how to fit a backpack. Your tips are what I learned. In addition it helps to understand that what you want is to have the weight resting ON YOUR HIPS or as you may name it, the lower back. I felt it when I tried on the backpack. It was clear how the weight was on my hips.
      SHOW ME THE BACKPACK: I sure would like to see your backpack, maybe turned around in the view of the camera. I have questions. Does it convert to a suitcase with a side handle? Does it have hip straps and if so are they the ones with the big floppy "ears" that always stick out? (I use a backpack daily so that's too much tech for me. Let me design one, eh sharks.)
