    Saving the shins/lower back on ruck marches

    I hate the pain you get after awhile when your ruck bounces up and down so much you have a layer of skin missing from your lower back. It sucks but it heals, and know I seam to never have the pain I used to have. I guess its just something everyone has to get used too. :salute:
