TFT38: Improving Your Hiking Training


Listen Later

In this episode, I share a powerful strategy which you can apply to improve and upgrade your hiking training, no matter what your current situation is.

Quite often hikers get caught up chasing the idea of 'the best'. What is the best type of training? What is the best number of days to work out? What is the best diet for the trail?

But sometimes when we end up chasing 'the best' we don't end up doing anything at all... To combat this, in today's episode, I share with you a simple and effective strategy, which I use in my coaching, which can guarantee you will improve your training (without overwhelming you).

You will learn:

  • Why chasing 'the best' doesn't work very well for most hikers
  • How to use 'the continuum method' (which I base much of my coaching off)
  • Some simple ways to upgrade your training (including strength training, exercise classes, mobility and core training)
