Have been using at fitness classes and walking very impressed with how it supports your posture
Great product and fast delivery. I’ve been out ruking a few times now and really enjoying it, the vest is comfortable to wear. Would definitely recommend!
Ok, well I’ve had my RukSak Hiking Pak for a while now but wanted to wait a bit before I reviewed it so I could really give it a good amount of use, and so, a more accurate review.
First off, the founder of RukSak, Adam, took the time to meet up with me in person, I just happened to be visiting friends on the Central Coast, and I wanted to try on a RukSak before I purchased one.
He was bloody helpful and a really great bloke so that’s a big plus in my book, and, very importantly, he came across as someone that’s really passionate about his business and really wants us, his customers, to be happy with his product.
Secondly I can 100% reassure you that these things are extremely well made. Tough as all hell but still very comfortable, thanks to extra padding and the belt (which I highly recommend)
Thirdly having the ability to adjust your weight in 1 kg increments is just bloody genius. You can slowly and safely add more weight as you get fitter and your body gets accustomed to walking with a weighted back pack.
Finally I just can’t find anything to complain about!!!
It’s a great product, very well made and easy to use.
Chuck on your RukSak and off you go.
How good is that ?
Yes, they are not cheap, but …..what price do you put on good health?
And these RukSaks are so well made and tough that they will last a lifetime.
The RukVest is perfect for women. It’s easy to wear, extremely comfortable and adjustable. Really happy that I invested in one.
Recommend this product. I use it for 5km+ power walking around 4-5 times per week and my body has already adjusted to it after 3 walks. Soft & comfortable
What an investment! Don’t delay order one today! I purchased the 8kg. I ummmed and arrrrrddd on the size. So happy. 😁
Bought the 5kg Rukvest, super comfortable and weight is dispersed very evenly. Was tossing up between 5kg and 8kg, would be great if additional weight could be added on without having the backpack option.
I have had this product a few weeks now and I am very happy with it. It is comfortable and a way that I incorporate some resistance work into my walking. I recommend this product 😊
The vest was packaged really well when i received it. After after a few weeks im noticing improvements in my training, using the same program just by adding the extra weight. It works well for multiple members of my family with the easily adjustable straps and I love that the filler material doesn't bounce around like added weights in other vests I tried.
I purchased an 8kg RUKVEST to try and burn a few more calories and get my heart rate up while walking. It's such a great workout. I absolutely recommend!
I purchased the Ruksak Starter Pak , with 12 Kg weights and Hydration pak - still to use this
All of the Ruksak products are well designed and well made, straps were well padded , even the packaging was first class
When the belt is integrated with the Ruksak, you do not even notice that you are wearing the Ruksak. You will need to follow the "How to " instructions to fit the belt correctly
I started carrying with only 3 kg and will work my way up. You do notice the workout on your legs/calves as well as the cardio workout, so you may need to consult a professional if you have had issues with your knees etc
While the prices are high, you are paying for a quality product. You wouldn't want the weights to dislodge from the Ruksak during Rukercise
Also Adam was very helpful and I was able to pick up the product from Gosford
I was apprehensive about buying this vest but have no regrets now and love it. Adds intensity to my daily walks, 100% recommend
Unlike my previous vest, which was uncomfortable and awkward to put on and wear, it is easy to put on and made of something like a gel. So, there are no hard metal weights. It's amazing! I love it. I'm getting another one for my wife. :)
I absolutely love my new RUKVEST & have started following the plan for first time wearers. I’ve been wearing my RUKVEST when I walk my pups so I slowly get used to the feel of the weight, it’s super comfortable & I don’t feel unbalanced or unstable which is very important to me.
what a super way to amp up your training. I have now used the vest for walking and yoga class and wow! it does not restrict movement and it is very comfortable.
I love the 5kg Rukvest, thank you. It is compact and comfortable, sitting high enough on the torso to suit a short-waisted person (some other weighted vests.hang too low and rub on the hip bones)
Very well made product. I purchased the 8 kg vest for my wife . She said it turns her regular walk into a harder cardio session . You don’t even have to think of a routine , you just walk . I hope to purchase the 11kg when available.
Have worn it twice at home just going about my business and felt it created a bit of a sweat, looking forward to using more to grab that extra calorie burn!
Great idea. And great way to improve fitness
We recently bought the 8kg rukvest after it was mentioned in an article in the Body and Soul (Sunday Mail in Adelaide). We’d been walking with backpacks with our own weights in, after learning about the benefits of rucking. We’ve found the rukvest to be a more convenient alternative to keeping a loaded pack ready. We haven’t done more than a 5km hike in it yet, but so far we’ve found it to be comfortable and appears to be really well made and durable. Easily adjustable to different body shapes, and seems to dry quickly. Very happy!
