Rucking is walking with weights - a simple, effective, low-impact workout that combines walking and a weighted backpack or weighted vest. From its roots as a military exercise, it has made its way into the fitness rucking mainstream, offering a powerful blend of cardio and strength training that can be customized to your fitness level. Gear Up for the CHAD WOD with Hyper Ruck. Train for the challenge with adjustable weight rucking backpacks.
Getting started is as simple as filling a backpack with some weight and taking a walk. Your first step should be selecting rucking weights. You do not need to start with an expensive tactical ruck holding large cast iron ruck weights in dedicated padded compartments. While you can use a regular backpack filled with cast-iron metal ruck plates, they will not be stable and can hurt your back and damage your backpack. We recommend alternative ruck weights for better comfort, weight distribution, and ability to adjust the weight in your ruck. Next choose from a variety of backpacks. Look for key features like padded, wide shoulder straps, a chest strap, waist strap or hip belt, and strong construction to hold the weight. Why not choose a multi-purpose backpack for EDC day use or travel like Hyperwear's Hyper Ruck rucking backpack?
Walking and hiking with weighted vests like the Hyper Vest TAC serve as another excellent option. The benefits of using a weighted vest include balanced weight distribution front and back reducing the strain on your back. With the Hyper Vest, adjusting weight is a breeze, allowing you to scale up to 40lbs as you get stronger. "Best Heavy Weight Vest" Men's Health 2023
