I recently came across in my favorite Cambridge Dictionary – rucking. It’s not yet an official word in the dictionary, but it’s growing in popularity.
So, what exactly is rucking? It’s an exercise where you walk or hike while carrying a heavy backpack or rucksack. The added weight makes it a low-impact yet highly effective way to build strength and improve your heart health. Originally a part of military training, rucking is becoming popular as a workout for anyone looking to stay fit without intense physical strain.
