I've thought of using one of those. I've seen the weighted harnesses before and figured a back pack would work just as well.

I think this will help me keep my back straight and my shoulders up and back - but I still need to adjust the height of the machine. I'm only 5' tall and I have a machine sitting on the top of a 30" table. What I need is a bar stool!!
