Movement Breakdown

Ruck Sit-ups

  • Lie on your back holding the ruck against your chest, knees bent, feet flat.
  • Curl up to a full sit-up, keeping the ruck tight to your chest.
  • Lower back down with control and repeat.

Ruck Curls

  • Hold the ruck by its straps or handle with both hands, arms extended down.
  • Curl the ruck up toward your chest, keeping your elbows close to your body.
  • Lower back down under control, resisting the urge to swing it.

Ruck Bodybuilders

  • Start standing with the ruck on your back.
  • Drop into a squat, place your hands down, and jump your feet back to a plank.
  • Perform a push-up, then jump your feet back up to your hands.
  • Stand and finish with a jump, arms overhead, before starting the next rep.

Ruck Overhead Press

  • Hold the ruck at shoulder height with both hands.
  • Brace your core and press it straight overhead until arms are fully locked out.
  • Lower back to shoulder height with control.

Ruck Swings

  • Hold the ruck with both hands in front of your hips, feet shoulder-width apart.
  • Hinge at the hips, letting the ruck swing back between your legs.
  • Drive your hips forward explosively to swing the ruck up to chest height.
  • Let it fall back naturally into the next rep.
