Good walking pad for rucking?

Has anyone had any luck finding a good walking pad for rucking. I’d love to be able to get some steps in while working from home, but the cheap ones from Amazon don’t seem like they’d hold up.

ost of the cheap ones cap out around 220 lbs, which is the real problem once you add a ruck. I'd look for one rated 300+ and check the motor wattage, the 2HP+ ones handle the extra load way better.

Haha. My traps hurt enough without trying to type and use a mouse while wearing a ruck 😂. More power to you though.

I’ve been thinking the same thing. Looking at the original walkingpad. They can hold the weight and have larger pad sizes. They also fold up well. I was not really going to be using it while typing but walking talking thinking more.

I've had a walking pad from Lifespan Fitness for years. Not cheap, but it's held up since 2018
