Rucking is for everyBODY. Beginners welcome.
Humans were made to carry heavy things.
Rucking = walking with weight.
Rucking is a great way to get outside, move your body, strengthen longevity through endurance and gaining muscle all while building community and new connections.
Rucking is the #1 way to simultaneously burn fat AND build muscle. It is also less likely to cause injury than running, lifting weights, etc.
Start with no weight or up to 10% of your body weight in a backpack or use a weighted vest. The weight can be from books, rocks, dumbbells, or a puppy. I prefer a puppy 
The weight amount will shift based on type of walk/trail, distance and fitness level. Don’t over do it. More is NOT better!!
I have extra backpacks if needed. Let me know before the event.
