Workout Weight-Holding Backpacks

The Goruck Ruck Plate Carrier Increases Workout Intensity

Integrating wearable weights into one's workout regime is a surefire way to increase intensity, which is something the Goruck Ruck Plate Carrier is intended to help do in a minimalist manner. The pack is crafted from 1000D Cordura that can be loaded with a 20 or 30 pound Ruck Plate that's purchased separately to immediately increase workout intensity. The pack is intended to be worn high and tight on the back to help with natural stability as well as easier breathing to allow for longer, harder training sessions.

The Goruck Ruck Plate Carrier keeps the chest open during wear, and also eliminates the need for extra straps and zippers to maximize comfort. The pack also has a spacer mesh to help dissipate heat.
