Rucking, a military-inspired exercise involving walking with a weighted backpack, is gaining popularity as it helps with weight loss, muscle gain, and endurance. Experts suggest starting with light loads and maintaining proper form to avoid injuries.

The article from MSN discusses the benefits of rucking, which is walking with a weighted rucksack or backpack. Rucking is highlighted as an effective, low-impact exercise that can significantly enhance physical fitness when done for about 150 minutes a week. It not only improves cardiovascular health but also builds muscle strength, particularly in the legs, back, and core due to the added weight. The article explains that rucking can burn more calories than regular walking because of the increased effort required to move with additional weight. It also mentions that this form of exercise can improve posture, increase endurance, and even help with mental health by providing a meditative, rhythmic activity. Furthermore, the piece provides tips on how to start rucking, including choosing the right backpack, starting with lighter weights, and gradually increasing the load to prevent injury.
