  Rucking, which involves walking around with a weighted backpack on, has taken social media by storm this year and celebrity chef Guy Fieri credits it with helping him to lose more than 30lbs.

Rucking, a fitness trend that involves walking with a weighted backpack, is gaining popularity for its potential health benefits.
