6️⃣ reasons to start rucking 👉👉👉

Rucking is another term for loaded walking with a weighted backpack, and it has lots of benefits for women.

I started loading my daily walks earlier this year and it’s added a fun and challenging element to what I was already doing.

🚶Build strength, especially in the lower body and core.

🚶Build bone density. As you age and enter menopause, the decline in estrogen can leave you more susceptible to osteopenia and osteoporosis.

🚶Improve endurance and cardiovascular capacity.

🚶Lower impact than running. If you love to run, great! But not everyone likes it or can handle the impact.

🚶Adds a challenge to the walking you’re already doing.

🚶It’s fun!

You can ruck with any kind of weighted backpack and get creative!

But for me, doing this several times a week, it helps to have a specifically designed rucksack for comfort.

I have the @goruck Rucker 4.0 (20 L) pack with 20 pound insert. I added a hip belt for comfort. (The 25 L bag which Z has comes with hip belt already).

The weight sits close to my back and doesn’t swing around. Sometimes I’ll slide an extra 10 pound weight plate in for added challenge.

Do you ever do weighted walking / rucking? Leave a 🙌 or ❤️ below!

I stood on the sand thinking, “I might just 💩 my pants.”

In front of me loomed what’s dubbed “one of the hardest obstacle courses in the military.”

But I wasn’t just looking at it.
I was about to do it.

On that hot August day 9 years ago, I was invited by friends to accompany them to the Navy SEALs obstacle course in Coronado.

Think of any obstacle course you’ve seen but on steroids. Oh, and no harnesses. No safety nets. No messing around.

Gulp.

I played soccer most of my childhood, other sports in high school, and then picked up cycling as an adult.

But somewhere along the way, the thought that I wasn’t strong burrowed into my mind like a worm making its way to the center of an apple.

In 2010, I joined CrossFit. I started lifting barbells for the first time in my life. And I was challenged to try new skills, even though I sucked at them.

A few months later, I did my first pull-up. It was like my brain opened up. The only thought on my mind was, “If I just proved myself wrong - that I AM strong enough - what else can I do?!” 

That right there is why strength training is so empowering for women.

Back on the sand three years later, I stood looking at the giant cargo net, the huge ropes, and massive logs. My palms were sweating.

And that old familiar thought popped up, “What if I’m not strong enough?”

But this time, the answer came from my own mind, “Fuck it! What if I AM?!”

I went on the complete every obstacle.

Here’s the lessons that I still remember from that day:

👉 I felt the fear and I did it anyway.

👉 Every obstacle required me to stay focused and present on the task at hand.

👉 Having a squad to offer encouragement and support was vital. Not doing it alone.

If you have a BHAG (big, hairy, audacious goal) that’s in your mind, I want to help you get there.

Whether it’s your first pull-up, preparing for a multi-day hike, or something else that excites / scares you a little...Let’s do it.

All the ways you can work with me are in my link in bio!

I feel powerful when I lift. 💪💥

Building strength has given me so much freedom instead of the never ending pursuit of shrinking.
