Recently i bought a new pack with a hip belt for carrying loads to train for a trip later this year, very new to the sport, my waist size is like a 28 or a 29, im 6'1 130. The hip belt even when theres zero slack is too big foor my waist and it wont sit properly, i also experience alot of shoulder and neck pain, is that normal or is it because the hip belt doesnt work, i tried wrapping it around myself and clipping it behind my back but that makes it impossible to breathe
