So there is hope for maturity? Yeah, but you're not old enough until you start getting the AARP crap in the mail.

AARP was bad enough. Now once a week it is hearing aids.
HITH did they know?

I decided to give my shoulder a little try- we have one of those all in one Nordic Track weight machine at work- I put on some obscenely low weight and did 3 sets of 20 chest presses and lat pulldowns to the front- didn't seem to hurt my shoulder (but hurt it later by trying to press off with right arm playing with the dog ) still single digits here- 4 miles of "hills" on the treadmill

And to clarify, when I said "viagra mailers" I was talking about you, not me. I don't get mine in the mail, I get 'em direct from Rush Limbaugh's pharmacist along with my Percocets. Upper body today. The chicks couldn't stop gawking.

Ok, question. While not a serious BP hunter, I do use one loaded up with flats of shotgun shells to hike with. Since I don't run that much any more I find it great cardio and obviously good for the legs along with being a calorie burner.
Problem is my right hip and down the top of that thigh hurts almost all the time and if I unhook the waist belt it mostly goes away. Have a sleeping bag in the bottom, so the weight is on the top. Bag is a Mystery Ranch and I can't tighten the load lifters any further to draw it closer to my back.
Also if I leave the right shoulder strap longer than the left it is not much of a problem. Also do the squats, deadlifts, etc and feel little after effect in the right hip. In fact most of the discomfort with those exercises are located in the left thigh which I tore years ago.
Ideas appreciated.

I know who Sonny and Cher are (or were in Sonny's case), you old goat. Used to watch 'em on the Smothers Brothers (google it Tanner). I just love to call you an old goat. My recommendation for what ails you has naught to do with the pack. How are you fixed for hip, hamstring, and lower back stretches? Especially the hip flexors? How about foam rollers and stretching for the IT band? I've had similar problems in the past and it always comes down to being too tight in certain places. Especially for guys who do resistance training, that will tighten you up. Find a good DPT, and have her put you on the table and see where you're tight. Chances are, even if you stretch 90% of what you need to stretch religiously, you're missing 10% somewhere and she'll find it.

I was going to say check into hip flexors as well
as a secondary possibility, do you haven an option to try another waist belt? sometimes waist belts just hit a guy wrong

Stretch, have foam rollers and the stick. Use all fairly often. I'm to the point that it's not much more than a bumpy glide path to touchdown. Guy comes walking over to me in the Gym last week. Turns out he is going to hit 50 soon. I see he has a reason and make eye contact. He stops and tells me I'm an inspiration. I know where he is going and say, you are saying I'm old. "Ah, Ah, Ah" he goes. I laugh and tell him don't quit, there is no game in it. An "Inspirational Old Goat." Who woulda ever thunk? Smothers Brothers? Wasn't that some kind of old time cough drop?

I stretch and use foam rollers almost every time I go to the gym. The DPT still found problems, and then fixed 'em.

Plus, where else are you going to experience a 20-something massaging your thighs? I mean, for me it's routine but....
