TFT93: Jumping Training For Hikers

In this episode, I discuss the right and the wrong way's for a hiker to use jump training (i.e. jump squats, lunge jumps etc.) in their workouts.   I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with jump training. On the one hand, I KNOW that if applied right, it can be incredibly beneficial for hikers.   On the other hand, I know that if applied wrong, it carries an unnecessary risk of pain and injury.   And, unfortunately, 95% of people using jump training in their workouts, are using it wrong...   So today, I explore in-depth my thoughts around this subject. So you can understand why I shake my head at so many workouts I see online, and you can be empowered to make intelligent decisions with this type of training.   You will learn:   Why it is a mistake to use jump training to develop your cardio or muscular endurance An unusual method of jump training which can be incredibly beneficial for hikers (particularly at helping your descents) How jump training might be applied in helping you recover from ankle injuries My favourite form of jump training, which I think is incredibly useful for hikers How to use this type of training to improve your strength workouts === Want to get fit, strong and resilient for your hiking adventures?   Check out the Online Summit Program: https://www.summitstrength.com.au/online.html
