Do you currently use walking in your daily fitness routine?

Just completed 300 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail with my 17-year-old daughter. My pack was 40 lb and I am a 128 lb woman, 5 ft 10 in. I'll tell you that was the best three and a half weeks ever! And now I have visible abdominal veins as a 44 year old mom of four! 😀

I've been walking daily. Around 8000 to 10000 steps or 2 30 minutes walks a day sometimes. I started my weight loss journey at 254lbs. Today I weigh 179lbs. I think my goal weight is around 155lbs. I'm trying to get there!

Former infantry officer here. Rucking is great exercise and most of the injuries you described can be prevented by selecting the appropriate pack and packing it correctly. People will often put a dumbbell or weight plate in a backpack, but this is terrible because the natural motion of walking can cause it to slam into your back over and over, especially if you don't have a pack with a frame. Instead, you can pack your ruck with a sandbag wrapped in a towel or something like that. Also, in terms of avoiding back and joint damage you should have no problems if you stick to packs weighing 35 lbs. or less. You'll also want to make sure you have appropriate footwear (boots that support the ankle are best, quality socks) and make sure you ease into it, so your feet don't get blisters.

As an 8 year Army vet, ruck walking will boost stamina like a pack mule, and build the traps, but it can lead to back injuries with enough time/volume. Of course, this is with 70-100+ lb loads, typically not under controlled environments. Traversing declines with heavy loads is pretty rough on the knees. But anyone healthy can build up to 40 lbs and work from there based upon the level of intensity they need.

Walking with a weight vest can distribute the load a bit better than a ruck and some will probably find it more comfortable. Do that in tandem with incline training on a treadmill and you'll probably end up with a more efficient session.

I’m a 100lbs overweight so I have a built in ruck already. Walking about 3 miles every morning now.

I walked my way from 470 to 320, injured myself, went back to 409, sitting now at 355. I know at some point I'm gonna have to bring in some resistance or strength training to get down to 285, but knowing I'm way away from that guy at 470 is a great feeling... And my knees and back thank me daily ❤

What he is saying is facts. I lost 40lbs in 15 months walking on a 15% incline at 2.2-2.5 pace for 45 min 5 days a week. Changed my diet only slightly still working on it.

Hey Paul I’ve lost 100lbs by walking 25k steps a day!!

I go for walks every Weekend and they are never a WORKout because they are no work. I go for x hours because I'm on an adventure through the woods. I walk uphill or in harsh terrain because I have to pass it to reach my destination. I have a heavy but comfortable backpack (do yourself a favor and get a decent one for hiking) because it contains my water, food, clothing and my hammock that I use for my chill out break. It's effortless because it is about the experience and not the working part. That way it is easy to do it regularly.

Been dealing with extremely high blood pressure issues for years. A couple years ago I thought I would try something new instead of the boring treadmill, by remembering the days in the military. I live in a area with rolling hills, so I started walking 1.5 miles every morning, after a few weeks I started with a ruck with 10 lb bag of sand, kept adding weight over several weeks. I stopped adding weight at 50 lbs, doing 3 miles every morning before any eating. Blood pressure is under control and feel much better, plus reduced body fat. Just turned 55, I will have to reduce ruck weight as I get older, but for now 50 lbs is working out great. When I bought this house 5 years ago, I notice a older man walking every morning weather permitted. Talked to him and he said he walks 1.5 miles. He said he has been doing it since he retired, said if not he would have a hard time getting out of bed in the mornings, he is 84 yrs old.

I was burning about 330-420cal on a slight incline on treadmill (3.0 incline, 3.5 speed) in about 30 minutes. Now, I use a 20lbs weight vest with same treadmill numbers and I burn 500-620cal in 40mins. I definitely enjoying walking rather than HIIT cardio. It’s definitely easy on my knees and other joints. 😎🔥

Appreciate your videos. I’ve dropped 76 pounds since Spring. Done a lot of walking and swimming in the summer and am now strength training. As a therapist, myself, I’m in nature parks when I walk. Research shows that 2 hours in nature can vastly improve your mental health. It’s how we get back to our roots and hit the triad of body, mind, spirit. Thanks again for your insight.

Great video! As a keen mountaineer and long distance wanderer, my walks are normally 8/9 hours plus, with a pack and poles and it burns a huuuuge amount of cals.

A note on your clients experiencing shoulder pain with a ruck: the shoulder pain stems from a poorly fitted pack. If you're carrying any great amount of weight on your back, 2 inches of foam on each shoulder isn't going to cut it for that length of time. You should always get a pack which fits you properly and with a comfortable, adjustable waist band so that the weight is picked up by your hips and legs, and not on the shoulders and back. The shoulder straps should only be there to keep the pack secure to your back, as close to you as possible.

Inspired by your videos, I've been walking 3-6 miles/day and have lost 2 inches off my waist in the last month.

I do 5 minutes of walking on a treadmill. I spend half of the time walking backwards the other half forward. I have it set at 20° incline the speed 1.6 backward 2.0 forward. Thank you.

I have done two walking workouts that both burn at least as much as the ruck walking workouts you describe. The first is nordic walking, but with a bit a twist. I have trekking type poles called Bungy Pump, which are made by a company in Sweden. These have spring compression that both absorbs some of the shock of the pole hitting the ground, and adds more resistance to the upper body part of the workout. These poles come in different resistance ratings, and I use the highest resistance pole (22 pounds of resistance). I also normally wear five additional pounds of weight on my wrists and arms. This is fantastic workout that I do for one hour at a time. The second walking workout is simply walking with a 12 pound dumbbell in each hand. If anyone is old enough to remember Heavyhands (early 1980s), this is the same type of workout. I do four to eight minute intervals of different movements with the dumbbells as I'm walking, including ski pole movements, curls, presses, upright rows, and several others. The key is to move the dumbbells, not simply walk with them dangling from your hands. I normally do 45 minutes total in these workouts. So for comparison, my heart rate just walking at a 3.5 mph pace for an hour would average about 95 beats per minute, using the bungy pumps, at about the same pace, it averages about 125 beats per minute, and walking with dumbbells at about a 3.2 mph pace, it averages about 140 beats per minute. The heavyhands heart rate is very comparable to my heart rate on four mile runs at 9 minute per mile pace.

Great video with excellent advice. The following is my two cents’ worth as a 55 year old former active duty Marine officer. I live in Truckee, CA (altitude 6, 000 feet) with mountains rising to just under 8, 500 feet within a 10 mile radius of my home. I’ve relearned what I learned in the Corps thirty years ago: you only get used to rucking/hiking with or without heavy loads by actually doing it. You MUST hike with heavy loads over rough terrain at stiff paces. Hence, I started a ruck program this spring specifically for the purpose of being ready for elk hunting this fall. I currently hike 1-2 times per week on the local high school track. My standard carry load is 55 lbs in the pack and often I carry a fifteen pound macebell, too. I currently cover 3 miles over level terrain in 48 minutes and want to get that down 45 minutes before extending the distance. This is the Marine Corps Combat Readiness Evaluation System standard I learned three decades ago. It’s the only standard I have experience with and it is time tested and proven. Rucking at a fast pace not only improves your VO2 max but also toughens up your feet. Blisters and hotspots suck (they can ruin/destroy an expensive and much anticipated elk hunt). Constant rucking teaches one how to prep and harden your feet for those long hikes on very uneven terrain when your feet will slip inside even the best fitting high quality boots. With time, we all learn solutions that allow us to save our feet from the most debilitating damage so we can enjoy those backcountry hikes.

Always like to hear what you have to say Paul! I'm a hiker and a backpacker. I walk almost everyday, and strength train 3 times a week. You have to make sure you have a pack that is rated for the weight you intend to carry or you will always have difficulties with the suspension system and what it does to your body. I have used walking and hiking the last 2 years to drop weight, of course sleep and how I eat are big parts of my daily routine that helped me drop 107lbs. By far walking and hiking are my favorite forms of exercise with the benefit of not eating everything in site, with the exception of thru hiking 10+hrs on trail a day.
