This episode is the most comprehensive guide to rucking.

* Whether you should ever ruck with over 50 pounds or 1/3 bodyweight.

* How to fix rucking shoulder aches.

* Whether to use a hip belt while rucking.

* The difference between rucking with a weight vest and backpack.

* Whether you should run with a ruck on.

* Whether walking with your kid in a backpack kid carrier counts as rucking.
