I read somewhere that that the sweetspot for the average person on weight in a ruck for fitness is 35 lbs. Obviously, most of us here have rucked way more than that, but the point is above that you start factoring in long term damage to your back for doing.

Endbuster posted:I've seen supply room chicks able to hump more weight than me on a march. Yeah the article didn't say you'd fold in half instantly with anything over 35 lbs just that you would gradually start jacking up your back the heavier and more frequently you did it. At 35 lbs. you can do it to your heart's desire without doing any damage at all. As for butterbars and running, between OCS and IOBC I'd say running was 90% of our PT. My pushups and situps only marginally improved but I could max the run by the time I was done. They seemed to have this idea that hard PT = running, anything else = shamming. In fact, I was in the marginal PT group (had to PT on Saturdays) during IOBC for pushups (couldn't do enough at Ranger PT test standard). All we did was run even though about 1/3 of us were there for pushups.

I watched a video about discipline and this was in it. She's looks so loving content. I think I'll just eat chocolate like her and play video games instead of working out.
