About Rucking Calorie Calculator
Track your ruck from the first step to the finished workout. Carry a backpack or weighted vest, set your load, and start recording with iPhone GPS. LIVE TRACKING AND MAPS Follow distance, elapsed time, pace, elevation gain, and estimated calories while you move. Pan and zoom the live map to get your bearings and explore the route you’ve recorded without leaving the app. Tap Recenter to return to your current location. Choose your body weight, carried weight, load type, and effort level. Available heart-rate data can help estimate effort automatically; manual effort settings are there when that data isn’t available. APPLE WATCH AND LOCK SCREEN Start and stop a connected ruck, adjust pack weight before starting, and check progress from your Apple Watch. Keep your paired iPhone with you for GPS tracking and connected workout controls. Live Activities show your workout on the iPhone Lock Screen. Optional spoken mile announcements let you follow your distance through your iPhone or connected headphones. REVIEW AND SHARE YOUR RUCKS Open Past Rucks to review saved workouts, detailed statistics, and recorded routes. Share a workout image with your statistics and an Apple Maps route when available. Copy the caption and app link to paste alongside your image. APPLE HEALTH With permission, use your latest body weight and available heart-rate readings, and save completed workouts to Apple Health with distance, duration, estimated active calories, and elevation gain. CALCULATORS FOR PLANNING AND MANUAL WORKOUTS Estimate calories from body weight, carried weight, distance, effort, and backpack or weighted-vest load. If you forgot to track a ruck, enter its distance and duration and save it to Apple Health. The weight-loss calculator estimates how your rucking routine, calorie intake, and activity level may affect your timeline. WHY I BUILT IT I’m Preston Shamblen. Rucking became a major part of my own weight-loss journey. I built this app because I wanted a practical tool that accounts for the weight I carry. No ads. No account required. Just tools for people who ruck. Calories and effort values are fitness estimates. Heart-rate features require permission and a compatible data source.
