Did you know that the simple act of carrying weight could be the fitness hack that could elevate your strength, brain function, metabolism, and longevity? Rucking, the practice of walking with weighted resistance, is far more than just “walking with weight.” This centuries-old training method is backed by compelling scientific research showing significant improvements in both your physical and mental health long-term. Ask yourself: what if the solution to better strength, cardio, brain function, and metabolic health isn’t more complex workouts, but simply adding strategic resistance to movements you’re already doing?
