Weight Lifting

Mindess EDP students conducted an experiment to check the safety of their backpacks. After weighing themselves, they calculated 15% of their weight, the recommended weight by chiropractors to prevent damage to a developing spine. Backpacks were weighed, and this was compared to the recommended weight. Students brainstormed weighs to reduce the weight and keep themselves safe.
