Comfortable Complacency.

What I've learned about purposely going on ruck marches in freezing rain and other uncomfortable instances, is that, under those kinds of stresses, the weight of the ruck, digging into one's shoulders, becomes almost irrelevant, due to the other calamities being undergone. It is always a good time to get tougher, rougher, stronger and happier.

I Rucked Every Day for a Month—Here’s What I Learned.

After seeing more and more people join in on this outdoor fitness craze, I decided to try it for 30 days. While backpacking in the Adirondacks last year, I listened to The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter.

As I scrambled up the trail’s slick rocks, trying my hardest not to fall before reaching the summit of Nippletop, Easter warned me about a different danger: the eradication of discomfort.

Sure, the amenities of modern life, such as cars, on-demand food, and temperature-controlled environments, ease our daily lives, but he argued they also erode satisfaction and fulfillment by depriving us of fundamental human skills and experiences.
