TFT44: Planning Long Term Training For Hiking

from The Training For Trekking Podcast · host Rowan Smith

Today I share with you a simple, long term approach to training for hikers. Often I find myself talking about preparation for hikers who are 16, 12 or 8 weeks out from their adventures... But what if you are 12 months out? Or 18? Or two years? What can you do then? Because following a structured plan for this time (for most) is a recipe for boredom and burnout... Instead, you want to ensure you continue to build your training fitness over this time - while keeping things more flexible and interesting! Inside this episode: The two areas of fitness hikers should focus on during long term training (plus two areas which you should avoid) How to plan out your training week (which will ensure you keep your training goals realistic) A simple, long term approach to strength training (which will ensure you are continually getting stronger for the trail, every single month) An easy way to keep your conditioning training fresh, enjoyable and interesting The right time to switch to a structured preparation plan == Need some extra help putting together a long term training plan for your hiking?
