On the topic at hand. You need a good waist belt and you need to use it. Make sure the weight is near the centre of your body above your hips. The body is designed to carry all it's weight on the hips and the hip cavity not on the shoulders. A proper waist belt transfers the weight to the hips making it feel manageable. You must also make sure the ruck is snug to your back pulling all the extra weight of the ruck as close to your CoG as possible for better weight distribution and balance.
I am sure this was all said in one of the pages but never hurts to recap everything.
