Add Weight to Ruck

I use the Rucking activity a lot. It would be great if we could add the additional weight carried during that ruck. For instance, I may wear a weighted vest of 20lbs, or a ruck backpack with 60+ pounds.

It would be nice to calculate that added weight which I assume would contribute to the overall strain for the activity.

Hey @tallcrossfitter,

Welcome, and thanks for your first post. Adding the option to log extra weight for rucks, like a vest or backpack, is a smart idea. We appreciate the feedback and will pass it along to our product team.

I second this. I used the Rucking activity today for the first time, going over 9 miles with a 30lb ruck. And was bummed there’s no place to add the weight of the rucksack to calculate the additional load/muscular strain.

Agreed. particularly because the HR doesn’t get that high.

Add me to the list for wanting a calculation of muscular load based on weight and steps?

I just wanted to contribute my thoughts about rocking weights also, being able to add a variable weight would make a big difference. I also think being able to track the distance and integrate some GPS height so you can track elevation would be a great feature and also adding in a weight distribution option of whether you’re carrying a pack or a single-handed carry because sometimes like might like to do both await in the pack and also a single hand carry.
