What Is Rucking

What The Heck Is A Ruck? #rucking #ruck #fitness #fitnessquestionsanswered #fitnesstips #fyp #tiktok

Rucking is a form of cardiovascular exercise in which you walk or hike with a weighted backpack. It has a number of health benefits. Rucking can help you build strength, endurance, and general fitness. It can help you build strength in your back and legs, especially your glutes and hamstrings. Walking with weight also helps you burn more calories than regular walking. Plus, rucking produces less impact on the joints of the lower body - the knees, hips, ankles and feet - compared to running. Start with a light weight a couple of days a week and gradually work your way up to higher weights and longer and faster walks.

Rucking is one of the best ways to strengthen your postural muscles. #rucking #ruck #goruck #posture #health #fitness

Running and carrying are why we have two legs, springy arches in our feet, big butt muscles, sweat glands across our body, no fur, short torsos, and why we can "lock" our hand bones into our wrist bones and generate abnormally strong forces with our middle finger. Other animals can't carry well, but humans are "extreme" in our ability to hoof heavy items from point A to B, according to a study in PLOS One. Running and carrying are, quite literally, our evolutionary advantages. And it's made them some of the fittest band of humans to walk the earth. And rucking works these parts as an integrated system, which can help you avoid injuries, according to research conducted for the military. Consider back injuries: About 80 percent of Americans will experience back pain sometime in their life. But researchers in Canada believe rucking can help relieve and prevent back pain because the weight "pulls" your spine into a position that compresses its discs less. Perhaps most importantly, rucking delivers cardio benefits equal to easy running, according to researchers at the University of South Carolina, as the extra weight elevates your heart rate more than walking alone. Rucking too heavy, fast, or too much too soon can lead to overuse injuries. Particularly if you've neglected upper-body strength training, you should ease into the weight or else your shoulders might become overly sore. Start with 10 to 25 pounds and work your way up. Any old backpack should be able to hold up to 30 pounds. As you reach heavier weights, you may need a sturdier pack. Place the pack on your back, cinch the straps to about midway, then go for a walk or hike for as long as you'd like. #trevorkashey #trevorkasheynutrition #lifehack #rucking #lifetips #mindset #selfrespect #dosomethinguseful #lifeadvice #goruck #gorucktribe #goruckgames #michaeleaster #comfortcrisis

Replying to @Andrew Jackson Here is my general recommendation for you! #rucking #fitness #fitnesstips #workoutroutine

#CapCut please read all red words. I'm not a professional. but I have learned a lot.goruck.com #weightlosscheck #transformation #enjoyyourlife #weightlosscheck #obesequeen #rucking #weightloss #ruck #ruckingadventures #ruckingbenefits

Yall. This is where change happens. Add a little weight to your normal walks and reap major benefits. @GORUCK NOTE: I’m not an expert. This is what I’ve learned and want to share in the event it helps someone else. I’m also not comparing actual military ruck marches to weighted walk. Rucking for the general public is BASED on what the military does… it’s the the same thing so don’t @ me. ❤️ #r#ruckingg#gorucke#easyexercisest#takecontrolofyourlifeo#outsideyourcomfortzonem#momsover40ontiktokm#momsover50ontiktokm#midlifechallengeyourself

What’s the most weight you should regularly ruck with if you are overweight or obese? I explain the math in the newsletter and a bit in this video, but I’ll skip the nerdy stuff and just give you the chart. Use your height to find the max weight you should regularly ruck with. 5’ to 5’2” —> 45 lbs 5’3” to 5’5” —> 50 lbs 5’6” to 5’8” —> 55 lbs 5’9” to 5’11” —> 60 lbs 6’ to 6’2” —> 65 lbs 6’3” to 6’5” —> 70 lbs 6’5” to 6’7” —> 75 lbs It might feel like we’re getting into the weeds here, but this question impacts a lot of people. Consider that more than 70 percent of Americans are overweight or obese. And rucking is arguably the best exercise tool to help people lose weight. It preferentially burns fat while preserving muscle. Also note that this is a “max” weight. I’m not saying you should ruck with this weight regularly. :) #rucking #ruck #fitnesstips

Are you a Rucker? RUCKING simply means walking with a weighted vest or back pack. I've always recommended a weight vest for non runners and especially for my smaller statured female clients or those at risk for osteopenia or osteoporosis. I also appreciate the benefits of a weighted vest for supplemetation to running or for those who need a boost in cardiovascular fitness and don't enjoy running. Want to learn more?
