WHAT IS RUCKING:

​

Rucking is defined as running or walking with weight. It is a great way to physically and mentally challenge yourself. It is considered low impact strength training. Some of the benefits of rucking include:

  • Building full body strength

  • Burns 3x more calories than walking

  • Boosts Confidence

  • Increases bone density

  • Improves your mood
