The current fad is "rucking", or putting some weight (sand, rice, books, etc.) into a backpack and hiking around.

  But it's not a fad per se. The extra weight can and does serve a purpose.

    Calling something a "fad" doesn't mean it's a bad idea.

  Is it worse for the back compared to a vest?
