Shipping Policies
Here you’ll find our shipping policies that should answer the most common questions. If you have any questions not covered here, email us (info@wildgym.com) and we can help you out.
Please ensure that you double-check your shipping address before completing your order. We are not able to edit incorrect addresses after the order has been placed as orders begin processing immediately. If your package is delivered to the wrong address, you will have to pay for it again in order to receive it.
If you enter the wrong shipping address, we will not replace your items.
We are unable to ship to PO Boxes at this time.
Do you ship internationally?
We are not able to ship rucks or weight plates internationally at this time due to the high cost of shipping which is more than $100 currently. Smaller items such as the pocket monkii are possible, please send us a chat or email to inquire.
Customs/VAT
As an international customer, you are responsible for any VAT, customs fees, and any other taxes or fees associated with importing merchandise from the USA. We do not cover these costs and we do not have distribution centers in other countries at this time.
If you refuse to pay the customs fee this is considered an abandoned package and you will not receive a refund for the order.
Which companies do you use for shipping?
Our warehouse chooses the best carrier for the location and current shipping volumes. They use USPS, FedEx, UPS, DHL and also smaller, regional carriers. We do not have the option to choose the carrier for any order.
Will I get a tracking number?
Yes! Once your order is prepared for shipment, you will receive an email with your tracking number. Some orders ship in multiple packages so it is possible you will receive more than one tracking number for different carriers.
How long does shipping take?
We ship Monday-Friday except for designated US holidays. Orders ship within 24 hours.
In the lower 48, most orders should arrive in 5-7 days but it can vary during high volume times such as holidays. We do not currently offer expedited shipping.
Internationally, 1-2 weeks is typical, but it depends on shipping and customs volumes. Some locations may take longer. Shipping times during the holiday season (late November to late December) are often longer.
I’ve been waiting and waiting but my package hasn’t arrived yet!
Shipping times do vary, especially internationally. If you believe your package has been returned, is lost in space, was stolen by a neighbor or eaten by wolves, please send us an Email (info@wildgym.com).
FAQ
Use this text to share information about your product or shipping policies.
What is rucking in one sentence?
Rucking is walking a set time or distance while carrying weight in a backpack.
Is rucking just hiking?
It’s related. Hiking is usually trails, terrain, and gear. Rucking is defined by the added weight, and it can be done anywhere, sidewalks included.
Do I need a special rucking backpack?
No. You can start with any backpack. But if you want it to be comfortable and scalable, a ruck with stable weight placement is a game-changer.
How much weight should I start with?
Wild Gym recommends 10–20 lb, with a simple rule: over 150 lb start at 20; under 150 start at 10.
How often should beginners ruck?
Start “a few times per week.” Wild Gym suggests starting with rucking a few times per week and building from there.
How long should a beginner ruck be?
Start with 20–30 minutes. Add time before you add a bunch of weight.
What pace should I ruck?
Brisk but controlled. You should be able to speak in sentences. If you’re redlining, it’s too heavy or too fast.
Does rucking build muscle?
It builds strength endurance and “carry strength.” If you want more muscle and bone stimulus, pair rucking with 2–3 simple strength sessions per week.
Is rucking safe for knees?
For many people it’s lower impact than running, but it’s not immune to overuse if you ramp too fast. Start light, keep the load stable, and avoid steep hills early.
What’s the best way to start if I’m totally out of shape?
Start with walking first. WebMD suggests you should be able to walk about 30 minutes comfortably before adding load. Then add 10 pounds and keep it short.
