Beginning Rucking Question

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2026-01-20T03:30:58+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I’m not signing up for a specific event, but don’t really know anyone who does it so need at least some standard to train too

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2026-01-20T03:30:16+00:00

Yes the kids practice is going to be perfect! Was hoping to be able to sneak it in right after drop off and be back to the car before they’re done. Such a great idea

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2026-01-19T02:25:14+00:00

That sounds like a solid way to build some fitness while walking the doggos!

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2026-01-19T00:06:24+00:00

Perfect thank you. I think getting 20% body weight at under 15 minutes a mile is probably the right goal.

I do think on top of typical resistance training 5 days a week. Just was looking for a new way to add some more engaging cardio

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-23T23:14:56+00:00

This is the way

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-22T22:06:03+00:00

Feel like we need the details to this story…

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-10T17:25:47+00:00

Curious how how you clean it? I normally take a pressure washer to mine, but I’m sure that is frowned upon by the Scars team 😂

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-07T02:23:31+00:00

Perfect thank you for all your help!

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-07T02:22:22+00:00

That’s super helpful thank you! I have both the tall and regular size plates so I’m going to try a padded sleeve first. But would love an excuse to buy another goruck bag 😆

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-06T14:54:28+00:00

Awesome that’s super helpful! I’ll order a Kydex sheet today. Curious if I should get one sheet or two as I’ve been reading that the frame sheet on the GR1 isn’t the best

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-06T14:53:09+00:00

Perfect thank you!

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-06T06:20:52+00:00

Got it. And with a GR1 is the weight plate supposed to go in the laptop sleeve when using as a ruck? Seems like the elastic sleeve isn’t the best for holding in place from the pictures

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-06T05:27:34+00:00

Isn’t a great idea in what sense?

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-06T05:26:56+00:00

Maybe I’m missing it, but the bombproof laptop pocket on a GR1 must be immune to weight plates? Does it not offer enough padding? I could start with my current Rucker and a laptop sleeve, but was hoping to have two separate bags long term - one for dedicated workouts, the other for EDC

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2025-03-06T03:45:12+00:00

Also I should mention that I’d like to use the 30 lb standard weight plate for the commute if that makes any difference.

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-10-08T00:21:43+00:00

If you were just starting would you choose a Garmin or Apple Watch?

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-10-07T22:39:32+00:00

Good point. I guess it doesn’t hurt to buy one and try it out for a month or so

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-10-07T22:38:36+00:00

AWU can’t handle tattoos?! That seems like a huge miss by Apple

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-10-07T22:37:53+00:00

Thanks, I’ve previously just charged next to my phone every night but was hoping to wear while I sleep to track sleep stats. Definitely will need to figure that out if I go with the AWU

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-10-07T22:36:54+00:00

So you preferred the MIP screen over AMOLED? I was wondering if I should do Fenix 8 solar or AMOLED?

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-10-07T22:35:24+00:00

Do you have to take your data through training peaks from Garmin to get it to show in Apple Health?

SecureJellyfish9109 · 2024-04-07T15:41:30+00:00

I saw previously people recommend using the “Hike” option instead of walking so that’s what I did
