42 y/o trying to get back in shape.

I tracked HR and pace data between a 1 mile suitcase carry with a 50 pound kettlebell changing hands as needed and a 3 mile ruck with a 50 pound pack. The suitcase carry was way harder. I felt like I was going as fast as possible but the pace was almost 3 minutes slower than the ruck. Also it would have been easy to keep going with the ruck but after the 1 mile with the suitcase carry I’m not sure how much farther I could have gone. I could see doing more suitcase carries when I’m short in time.

I can’t find the video but 3 months ago I was able to press 70 pounds for 1 rep (barely). Today it is 6 on the right and 5 on the left. Keep at it everyone.
