#30: Rucktober: Rucking Tips, Trends, and Community Insights with Julie, Leslie, Ben, & Kyle
Episode 30
Saturday, 28 September, 2024
In this special Rucktober episode of Coffee + SpWolfPack, we react to Streetparking's exciting challenge for the month of October and dive into the world of rucking—from the basics to its long-term impact on functional fitness. We’re joined by an incredible lineup of Instagram guests, including Julie from @themastersdivision, Leslie from @Lesliekjozwiak, Ben from @Ben.miller.9822, and Kyle from @KyledDouglas, who share their unique experiences and insights into rucking. From starting out with a simple backpack and a 25# dumbbell (thanks for the tip, Ben!) to reminding us to try our new equipment before going full send (wise words, Kyle!), this episode is packed with tips for beginners and seasoned ruckers alike. In this episode: What is Rucking? Why is StreetParking making it a focus with Rucktober? Tracking Your 31 Miles: How will you approach this challenge? We'll share ideas. Rucking: Trend or Essential Movement? Our guests weigh in on whether rucking is here to stay. Nature and Mindfulness: Can rucking be more than fitness? We discuss the joys of taking in nature while rucking—it can help pass the time and make the experience even more rewarding. No Reps, No Strategy, No Pressure: Rucking has its perks! Ben talks about the simplicity of rucking: no reps to count, no strategies—just you, your pack, and the road ahead. Prepping for Ruck Work Fridays: Julie reminds us to test out movements ahead of time so you're fully prepped and ready for those challenging Friday workouts. Kyle also drops a great tip—check out Jason McCarthy’s (CEO of GORUCK) podcast for more rucking insights! Whether you’re taking on the 31-Mile Challenge, joining the Wednesday and Friday Ruck Work sessions, or just starting your rucking journey, this episode has everything you need to get going. There’s no wrong way to ruck—just get out there, enjoy the process, and ask questions along the way (as Ben says, “There are no dumb questions!”). Question for our listeners: How will YOU be tracking your 31 miles for Rucktober? Share your tips, strategies, or even your rucking gear with us in the comments, and let us know how you're tackling this challenge! We love hearing your feedback and ideas!
