For the past few months, I've been finding it harder and more painful to walk around with my backpack. My right shoulder which I had injured over fifteen years ago, when I used to play basketball, had started acting up. I loosen the straps so they'd easily go over my heavy winter coat, but it didn't help enough.
They the other day, I glanced at the backpack and noticed the elastic straps that go across the chest to keep the bag stable. Maybe that would help. So yesterday when I put the heavy backpack on my back, I "buckled" those, too.
And, yes, it was much more comfortable. I felt fine walking with it, B"H, thank Gd.
