<p>Backpacks are the preferred choice for travelers due to their convenience and ease of carrying. Even trekking enthusiasts, known as trekkers, rely on large backpacks to accommodate their needs during expeditions. Additionally, armed forces utilize these bags to transport heavy loads efficiently.</p>
<p> However, the act of walking or running while carrying such substantial weight imposes a considerable dynamic load on the human body. This excessive load can potentially inflict severe damage on various body parts, including the back, shoulders, legs, knees, and other vulnerable areas.</p>

<p> School bags typically weigh around 4 kg when comparing different types of backpacks, while trekking or big traveling backpacks can reach up to 11 kg. In contrast, members of the armed forces often carry an immense load of approximately 30-35 kg. One can only imagine the tremendous impact and strain this dynamic force places on the users' bodies.
It is imperative to acknowledge the potential risks associated with carrying heavy loads and take appropriate precautions to minimize the adverse effects on the human physique.</p>
