Please don't buy the GOruck bags

I've been using goruck for months now. Usually I do 30 pounds but have gone up to 45 here and there. I started with a cheap frame ruck. It was alright. I know how to adjust weight in bags to make them comfortable. My father was army for 22 years and taught me how to. But the rucker 4.0 is virtually

Bag question

I have a 25 liter GoRuck Rucker 4.0 and it is perfect for me. I’m not a GoRuck diehard or fanatic by any means. No hate or shame on any bag but here is why I like my bag. -I only use it for rucking and exercise. It has room for other things too which I use for a jump rope, a tension band specificall

Shoulder relief?

I liked the Wild Gym better, but honestly I went back to my Lundhags Dovre 30 with plates or bricks for my daily rucks.I made a post about my thoughts and confusion on GORUCK some time ago. Since then I’ve had the opportunity to actually try the Rucker 4.0. It’s not as bad as I thought, but it’s bas

GoRuck vs Wild Gym vs Other

Unless you’re planning to throw your bag around on the ground and do CrossFit stuff, the GoRuck bags are completely unnecessary. GoRuck focuses on durability over comfort. I just ruck. I don’t do all that crazy stuff so I prefer comfort. Don’t get me wrong, WildGym bags are beasts too, but they are

Incline walking

Add a ruck sack instead. I developed bilateral achilles tendonitis in my 50s due to a lack of estrogen. I've mostly gotten it better but it still twinges if I spend a long time at a steep incline. I can maybe handle 2-3% and even then I can feel it a bit. I added a rucking back and some weight a yea

Thinking of starting rucking with my new pup, Patagonia, Zeuz or GORUCK?

Don’t buy GoRuck plates and particularly do not pay for transatlantic shipping. Yes4All plates are cheap on Amazon Germany and if your cart is over 100€, you get free shipping. Just have to be careful with dimensions. The following assumes Rucker 4.0 with Yes4All plates: A 20lb plate will fit in the

Started this week ... could use some gear advice

I’m your exact age. A couple inches shorter. A year ago I was tipping the scales as high as 248. Tried to run. Too big, too old, too slow. Started rucking around the first of July. GoRuck 4.0 with the Yes4All plates mentioned above - 35, 10 and 5 so I could mix and match depending on what I was doin

Old but new to rucking

Not a doctor but a stress fracture and osteopenia do raise concerns. I hope you are in good communication with your doctor or physical therapist about exercise parameters. Strength training to support rucking is a good way to reduce injury risk if your medical team approves. My suggestion is start w

Weighted walks

I use a proper rucking pack. Weighted vests are generally not for breasted people especially if they have more although GoRuck has some that look decent. I bought a GoRuck Rucker 4.0 20L and am up to 30lbs in that. I also purchased an Evergoods Mountain Loader 22L that I carry a 20lb plate in. I'm p
