Backpack Awareness

Backpack Got Your Back—or Breaking It?

Heavy loads = sore shoulders, bad posture, and long-term pain.

Protect your spine!
✔️ Wear both straps
✔️ Keep it snug & high on your back
✔️ Pack only what you need (no, not your entire dorm)
✔️ Heaviest items go closest to your back

💡 Pro Tip: Your backpack should weigh less than 10-15% of your body weight.

Stay smart. Stay strong. Save your spine. 💪
