How Do I Stop My Running Backpack From Bouncing When I Run?

The answer to this question is quite simple: you need to look for a running backpack that offers an anti-bounce technology. 

But what prevents a backpack from bouncing in the first place? What should you look for in a running backpack that is anti-bounce, and how do you know which one is the right choice?

In this post, you will learn about the main features and functionalities of an anti-bounce running backpack so that you can make a well-informed decision when buying one.

Anti-bounce technology in Running Backpacks

Put simply, anti-bounce technology refers to every and each practical element of the backpack itself. 

It's the same as finding the perfect wedding ring. You need to find the right shape, fit, and weight. So here are some things you might want to ask yourself:

1) Does the backpack have adjustable straps around your front chest, waist, and shoulders?

This will allow you to alter the fit specifically to your needs. Adjustable straps will also prevent the backpack from “dancing” around your upper body as you run.

2) Is the backpack firm, with a hard shell that stands still, or does it sag?

Simplicity is a key factor in anti-bounce technology. Prefer running backpacks that have a minimalistic design.
