ABOUT RUCKING:
"What is rucking?" https://www.goruck.com/rucking-101
RUCK•ING [VERB] // Walking with a weighted rucksack (aka backpack). It implies action, energy, and purpose. Rucking requires strength, endurance, and character -- and builds it, too.
HOW TO START RUCKING:
1. Get a ruck. (Any backpack will do.)
2. Add weight. (Start with books, or water bottles, your baby, anything will do!)
3. Just walk.
