Lower back pain is an incredibly common issue for many hikers (both on and off the trail).
In this video, I explore some training ideas on how a hiker can prevent and reduce lower back pain while hiking. Ankle sprains and ankle pain are some of the most common issues many hikers face on their adventures...
But it is not something you have to live in fear of! With the proper training and preparation, almost everyone can make a genuine positive change to their ankles. In this video, we explore 3 areas of training a hiker can use to help build strength and stability through the ankles - and get them feeling confident and comfortable on their adventures! So many hikers struggle with different types of pain and injury.
This is bad enough in day to day life, but when you have a big trip coming up, this can cause all types of stress! On one hand you want to give your issue the space it needs to recover. On the other hand don't want to be wasting previous time with your training (and end up being completely underprepared on your adventure). So to help ,this video goes into some simple strategies and approaches to help navigate this situation. And talks through how you can work your training for hiking around whatever pain or issue you may be facing.
In this episode I chat through an important area of training a hiker should consider if they are returning to hiking after injury or a flare up of discomfort.
In this article, we explore some of the best stretches a hiker can use before and after hiking. If used consistently, these stretches and releases can make a big difference to a hikers comfort while walking, as well as their recovery after they finish. |
