Started on Audible today. Planning to add more rucking to my training. I really need to build strength and endurance for a September Inca Trail hike. The scariest part is the elevation, and endurance training is non negotiable.

The audiobook arrived today. Did preorder at the writers block for a signed copy since I will be back in Las Vegas in 2 weeks. Am currently reading a new book by Kayla Girgen called “Ruck Fit”, am guessing there will be a lot of overlapping info but I figure the more info/advice on rucking, the better. And it was nice of her to acknowledge Michael as the reason she learned about and got into rucking!

Congratulations Michael. I got to work early today and rucked 2 miles in the parking lot. Thank you for introducing me to rucking. I have lost over 25 pounds.

Looking forward to the book. I already preordered it!

I’ve been rucking roughly once weekly for 4 years after I read the comfort crisis at ~20% body weight. Maybe this covered in the book, but I’m interested to know your thoughts on continuing to incorporate rucking into my other training, not making it the center of my training. I ski in the back country or skate ski 3-4 days a week in the winter and run 30-50 miles a week in the summer. My goals every year are always big multi day adventures on skis, bike or feet. Is one 5ish mile ruck a week at 9-11 minute miles enough to reap benefits?

Congrats on the third book! I own all of them and have recommended Comfort Crisis to at least 20 people. Keep up the great work.

Let’s go! Received notification the book is on the way. Looking forward to digging into it brother (as I’m currently wearing weight over my flight suit to get in passively throughout the day)

Congratulations! I've been dabbling in walking with weights, heard you on Rich Roll and got me excited to check out the book. Snagged a copy on audible and digging in today. Question though, the QR code for the training plans on the accompanying PDF takes me to this Substack, but the post says the plans are not available (looks like they're only available for founding members). Do you know when or how I can access this? Thanks so much

Michael Easter's avatar

They should be accessible. Try again! Thanks.

Congrats!

Just started listening to the audiobook and can’t wait for my signed copy!

I got my wife into carrying weight too!

Wait, you have a gear announcement?

Maybe a collab with McCarthy?

Eagerly awaiting my signed preorder! The Writer’s Block is always great to order from.

The Writer's Block is the best. I just signed them all on Sunday.
