The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
rocking is carrying weight for the sake of weight in a backpack so it the word grew out of military circles so in the military uh wrecking is just a standard fitness practice it is the main fitness tool that the us military and militaries all around the world going back hundreds and hundreds of years you use to build fitness for soldiers
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.

so i argue in the book that when you look at running is obviously popular jogging is a thing right or is it jogging i can't remember if the j is jogging it's jogging yeah yeah but carrying is not as a form of fitness and activity and i ultimately ended up traveling to goruck hq and this is a the tribe i argue that has really adopted caring is the military through rocking that's like the only group is really putting this at scale and goruck is a company that makes backpacks that are specific for rocking and their founder whose name is jason mccarthy he is uh he's sort of leaned into wrecking as a as a form of fitness as i started to really look at the research on it it's really great for us because you're working your cardiovascular system but you're also working your strength system to a degree so you're not going to get that with you know running or cycling something that is a pure endurance act whereas with wrecking you're getting the endurance but also you've got load on your body and so that is stimulating your muscles to a greater degree
that's like the only group is really putting this at scale and goruck is a company that makes backpacks that are specific for rocking
