“If you look at us before the start of this war, we did not wear 70 pounds of equipment,” Our rucks alone are 70 lbs as I'm sure most QP's on this board are, or well over.....then add in mags, frags, body armor weapons etc..... cardio should not be eliminated....having said that I think leg/upper body/arm strength should be the focus. There will be injuries if it is not conducted in a proper fashion. It will be interesting to see how it shakes out. My .02
