Does all the weight on the shoulders cause pain/discomfort in that area? Do the shoulders eventually adjust to the extra weight?

I have not had any problems with that, especially since you can cinch it up around the chest, so that some weight is lifted from the shoulders.

my shoulders got a little uncomfortable until I got used to the vest. you can always take out some of the weights and work your way up. I've found the padding in the shoulders to be adequate, but I don't jog or run with the vest on.

The straps that fit over the shoulders are elastic and adjust in length, like suspenders. I would think this would adjust for most people. Possibly someone with very heavy shoulders and upper back could have a problem, but surely they could be extended with a little effort.

Yes, this product is very configurable and is easy to adjust to fit your needs. I don't often use the shoulder pad, but it works great!

If I don't wear it I have notice that my back shoulder blade area starts to hurt sooner. I use it for sewing.

This is my first BabyBjorn so I cant compare vs other models but I've gone on hour long walks and have had no pains or aches. Just make sure the shoulder strap is in the right position and hip strap higher up.

Not sure because I am not overweight. It felt uncomfortable at first as long as I lay still, its fine. Get up a little hard. The only thing is I couldn't motivate myself to lay on this mat daily because it's uncomfortable. I just wish it's adjustable on the needles up and down a little bit to have a comfort mat. Overall, it's a nice product.

I have a long torso and had that problem with this one. But I have bought others that do the same. I ended up with one that has shoulder straps.

No. If I kept it on my back for a long time (longer than 30 minutes) it would feel a little bruised maybe but I never experienced terrible pain.

The back adjusts fine. I have no problems with it at all . It is very comfortable for me. Remember everyone is different.

I Cannot Fully Answer That Because I'm Very Tall. However, I Do Believe There Is A Pin Adjustment For The Shoulder Position. This Pack Has Tons Of Adjustment Everywhere! I Hope This Helps! (Sorry For The Caps, I'm On My Phone... ) -Anthony-

it's not super plushy but it has a pad on the strap that is adjustable that makes it comfortable. I have never had a problem with my shoulder hurting.

I'm a heavy male 220 and 5' 9" and I find the seat extremely uncomfortable. Also caused pain and a slight numbness/tingle to the groin area. The fortunate thing is that they use a standard bike mount so you can replace the seat with any bicycle seat.

Yes, it does. However it is a bit heavier than I expected, so I can't use it with my shoulder issues. :(

Nope. I don't use all the knobs and think it could be an overkill on some. Maybe I haven't watched enough YouTube videos, but it really targets and hits my scapula muscles between my shoulder blades and feels great. Regards, Ryan

Not really... There are way more affective ways to strengthen the neck and shoulders. The strap is virtually weightless

There are no add on weight to my knowledge. The bar is pretty stiff so there is more resistance than you think. It's actually too difficult to do some exercises, like rehabbing a shoulder or working on rotator cuffs.
