Rucking Gear, Packs & Weights

Beginners: Start with 10–20% of your body weight.

Experienced Ruckers: Can work up to 15 - 25kg (30-50 pounds).

Here’s the ideal rucking equipment list:

A specialised backpack: Force Fitness offer a range of rucking backpacks which are ideal for any skill level.

Weight plates or sandbags: Fit them securely in your pack to avoid shifting.

Comfortable walking shoes or boots: Good support and durability are key.

Moisture-wicking socks: To prevent blisters.

Hydration: Bring water to stay hydrated, especially on longer rucks. Don’t forget to check out our hydration vests.

Beginners can start with 1–2 rucks per week, gradually increasing frequency as they build strength and endurance. Always listen to
your body and give yourself rest days to recover.

Of course. Rucking pairs well with strength training, running, or even yoga for a balanced fitness routine. It can also be a great recovery activity on days when you want to stay active and offer a change of
scenery from the gym.
