Hey folks, I think I have read everything available here on rucking, but I have some questions on specifics;
1) What pack are you using? Frameless or with a frame?
2) What weight are you using, and do you ruck for time or mileage?
3)Do you ruck by heart rate?
4) What adaptations are you working towards?
I am a runner, but every winter my fitness suffers because of weather and a holiday diet. I think I have my diet under control, but I have been considering that rucking might be better on these icy roads. I honestly do a lot of walking on my mainly MAF based runs.
I see a lot of recommendations of go-ruck packs, but do they have a frame? They are also a hell of an investment. I have rucked some with 20-30 pounds and it's hard to get my HR up to maf levels. I am afraid to load my current pack any heavier.
Thanks!
