A conservative wealth management planner based in Tennessee, Chester “C. Edziu” Pacana is diversely experienced in real estate investment and financial planning. In addition to offering wealth management planning for high-net-worth individuals, Chester Pacana engages in challenging physical activities, such as hiking and rucking. Rucking, or taking a “forced march,” comes from a common Army training exercise in which soldiers are required to carry their equipment on their backs while walking for miles. Backpacks may weigh 45 pounds or more. Infantry members often complete the march in full combat uniform and may be required to hold a loaded weapon. The march usually takes place on uneven or difficult terrain. Rucking is a fundamental part of basic training, and improving finish time is essential for any soldier who wishes to move up the ranks. A 12-mile ruck march must be completed within three hours in order to qualify for an Expert Infantryman Badge. Forced marches are also part of admission and passing criteria for some specialist Army schools. Civilians use rucking for exercise and posture improvement, carrying weight in a backpack

Chester “C. Edziu” Pacana works as the vice president of sales and recruitment and as a conservative wealth management planner with DeRosa and Associates, offering wealth investment and retirement planning options to clients in Tennessee and Florida. Chester Pacana is also dedicated to the sport of rucking, whose participants hike with weighted backpacks on their backs. Advocates of rucking point out that it is an excellent exercise for the cardiovascular system, burning significant amounts of calories. Rucking is a tried-and-true staple of military fitness exercises; members of the armed services are among the strongest promoters of it as a means of active resistance training for the body. Since rucking can be done at a walking or slow hiking pace, at a fast walk, or at a slow jog, the difficulty and the resulting caloric burn increase as the pace increases. While the typical civilian who takes up rucking can choose to fill his or her backpack with varying degrees of weights depending on personal fitness goals (45 pounds is a common civilian standard), a member of the military is already required to haul large amounts of gear over often rugged terrains. Either way, the cardiovascular benefits are typically extensive. Experts note that a typical rucking session burns more calories than walking, about the same amount as jogging or a demanding general fitness routine. One estimate says a 200-pound man rucking for one hour at a pace of five miles per hour can burn more than 700 calories. Rucking also increases the heart rate and builds overall physical and mental endurance. |
