Ruck training suggestions

I like how everyone trains heavy for a chance that they will have to actually do a pack out.

I live in McCall and I ruck 2 miles around my neighborhood around 4 times a week with 45lb this winter. It’s flat, but it has still keeps me in shape. I also do high intensity Air Bike workouts in the summer. Honestly if you have good cardio from rucking and your legs are accustomed to some short steep hills, then you will benefit most from absolutely dialing in your boots. I made the mistake of rucking for 6 months in comfortable Brooks shoes then hunted in boots and it was terrible. I currently ruck in Altras and will hunt in them.
