Sizing your Ruck - Ranger School Prep
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 มี.ค. 2019
- Nobody has a ruck hack to make 65lbs feel like nothing, but if your ruck isn't sized properly on your frame, you're gonna have a bad time.
Additionally, I like to use the waist belt and use the load lifter straps to keep the weight off my shoulders as much as possible. If you look at packs from Kifaru or Mystery Ranch, it looks like they agree.

Hello sir,
Iam a ex-soldier of the german army "bundeswehr". The last 6 years, i was an infanteris. Mashine gunner with a mg3. I never understand why modern soldiers....historically it begins in vietnam war....and the baddest moment for rucksacks was the britsh falkland crisis....carry these ultra big backpacks. My biggest one had 120litre of volume....i dont understand why i must carry 3 complete uniforms and a lot of useless shit with me.
Our grandfathers, yours and also mine, had a little pack and only the uniform they were wearing. My grandfather fought in africa, in greece, at the western front and at last in russia.....with the same uniform....and a little haversack on his back!
I hatet it to carry this shit with me.
Salute to you.
Mike
this is the most underrated ruck video on the internet! most soldiers get their gear from CFI or RFI and never adjust their equipment to fit them. they also over tighten the shoulder straps which leads to shoulder fatigue too quickly.
It’s CIF.
this was my problem during basic and my arms quickly went numb after I put the ruck on. I wish they taught us how to set it up during basic
100% agree
“Quick 6 mile ruck”
we do 6 milers on payday as a way to "earn the Pain for Pay" :) it really is quick we do it in the morning at 0630 and Finish before 0745
Honestly, 6 miles is kind of nothing at a certain point. I have a buddy who goes 15 miles every other weekend.
Its not hard once you train for 6 moths to a year. Then you can do that easily.
Wow. Great video. Thank you! Four years active in the 82nd and you know, I never thought to go through all that to make an adjustment..man I wish I did lol..now out since 2011 and here I am getting ready to go ruck/camping and it dawns on me to fix my kit. Thanks again.
Ellis, thank you so much for your clear demonstration and explanation behind why you are doing what you're doing. Excellent, thanks again.
Thank you! Very easy to understand and see what you're doing with the ruck!
Great information. I’ve hear Joes share bad info on setting up a ruck all the time, your video really breaks it down for the viewer. Good job!
So much useful info, thank you! I bought a Molle 2 recently to become decent at rucking prior to shipping to Basic, went on a timed 8 mile ruck and my shoulders were destroyed by the end. My legs felt fine, I was never exhausted, my shoulders were the only thing feeling bad. Turns out, I just didn't have my ruck setup right and had all the weight on my shoulders. So this has helped me figure out how to fix it. I got a 10 mile ruck planned for this next week. If I get through it without wrecking myself again, it'll be thanks to you, brother!
Thank you for giving your height, as a reference. Great video!
Highly underrated video! I appreciate this!
Thank you for the best explanation on how to set up a ruck.
This was way easier than I thought it was going to be! Great video, thanks!
load lifter strap tips helped a ton thanks
your video taught me more than all the other videos I have seen on TH-cam. Thanks tons for the info
Thank you for the great instructions, going to share this...information like this is priceless.
I can smell the rucksack.
My molle 2 waist pack and 2 day pack are horrible. My large ruck wasn't too bad.
I’m glad to see your actually emphasizing the proper use of the load lifter straps. I see so many people putting them near the base of the neck thinking this raises the actual ruck but instead completely destroys your neck and back muscles especially 12+ miles. Another good tip to take it one step further is to take the load lift tabs and route them over the top of the frame and back through the cutout. A lot of trial and error to figure out these molles
CE20 that’s actually a good idea with routing the lifters. Gonna have to try that out as long as they don’t slip left or right.
Excellent idea! I'll try that out.
Thanks so much for this video! I often hear how it should sit, but rarely does anyone show how to size it or the proper way to put it on
Brother, this is the most correct and comfortable way I’ve seen someone wear the ruck. I’ve been wearing it wrong for years it seems. When I was in back in 2005-2010, I’ve gone through multiple ways to adjust to make it feel comfortable; even today when I go out for a ruck run. I’m gonna try this tomorrow for sure.
So, have you enjoyed it like this I presume? Makes it much better.
@@andyjacobs7010 yep. Still use it this way. My lower back isn’t an issue as much anymore.
K the lifter strap tip really helped, thx for saving me pain.
11B ruck=sucks. I wish I had this knowledge before basic. I had zero feeling in my toes on both feet after my sand hill adventure...
Lmao, this video is perfect for me. I was glad to hear that you are also 5'7", so I won't have to make too many adjustments different from yours.
Same lol
Same!!!
This is a must for everyone in military
Great video! Very helpful, thanks!
Thanks for the video!
This video is a godsend.
Thank you so much for the video I really need to size my ruck properly what many have recommended me is to raise as much as posible to have most of the weight on the upper part of my back
this was harder than expected but it works
bro this is gold
This was on point
dude u just helped me so much. thx you
Awesome Info 👏👏👏👏
That was useful! Thank you.
Thank you😺
Thanks Sir, scouts out!
I've had 3 MOLLE frames break on me...I have never had an ALICE frame fail, though.
Well Done.
I've found the shoulder straps for the ruck I use dig down into my traps and cut my circulation off. I'm going to try your advice and see if that helps to take the load off. Thanks for the vid.
So how'd it go for you?
good video learned a lot. too bad ill never use this information after tomorrow. :)
Would you say that the lowest setting like on your ruck is better for shorter people?
Wish u could do the same vid with an alice pack
This man needs an ARCOM stats
Great video.Any chance you could do one on how you pack the ruck??
Here you go th-cam.com/video/Jv8nYDi_Auo/w-d-xo.html
This might be obvious but I wanted to ask...if you have a short torso do you move that middle panel (the one you rotated the pack out of the way for in the beginning) down?
If you have a short torso, moving the shoulder straps down will move the pack and frame up.
I don't know why they load these guys down with all this gear, their combat soldiers...not pack mules. You have plenty of delivery systems to get the gear to them when they need it.
Mine was plastic.
What frame is used in RASP selection? and can you purchase your own frame?
Ulysee Davis you get issued gear at CIF
Plastic Frame and no man you can't buy your own for RASP the packing list is very specific
I don't know of any military frame that fits my body.
Is this same/simular to the BDU ones?
Do you mean the Alice pack amzn.to/2UnsxCV ?
If so, no. The old Alice pack isn't adjustable and doesn't have load lifters.
This only applies to the MOLLE II pack amzn.to/3bxnCFr
Do you have any advise on the medium ruck? I can't seem to get it high enough for the tension straps to function. I'm 5'7 too..
The molle or Alice ruck?
@@299scouts8 molle, thanks.
What’s your definition of a “quick” 6 mile ruck
Your goal should be doing a 15 minute mile.
Going out for an hour and a half or less is about all the time I have on a typical weekday.
I divide my practice between speed rucking for as much time as I have available and rucking for long hikes without a time limit on weekends.
Ruck up Sarge!?! They said too me.
🖕🏼
Thank you POGs.
I have done my ruck three times and still do not get the gap on the lifter strap.. i don’t know what im doing wrong. Im 5’8 so i set it up just like yours
1) Loosen the lifter straps first
2) Sit back so your ruck is high on your back.
3) Attach the waist belt first. It'll sit above your hips.
4) Tighten your shoulder straps
5) The top of the frame should be above your shoulder
6) Tighten the lifter straps until ruck doesn't bounce or flop
7) Chest Strap
299 Scouts thanks boss!
wilgen garcia were you able to get that gap?
JMC JMC i only got a little bit but it still was better than before!
wilgen garcia same here. It’s a hit or miss on some days too.
MUSIC SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please, please … please turn that music off
