Habits You Didn’t Know Can Damage Your Neck

Carrying Too Much

A general rule of thumb is that people should not carry more than 10 to 15 percent of their weight in their bags, whether in a backpack or one-shoulder bag. Only carry what you need at any given time. That might mean transferring some of the items in your bag to your locker or desk while they aren’t in use, returning them to your bag when you head back home.
