 In this video we explore some simple tips and strategies to help a hiker relieve sore muscles and get a better sleep on an overnight or multi-day hike.
Sleep can make or break a multi-day adventure. Deep sleep plays a major role in your body and minds ability to recover day to day. But unfortunately, there are so many factors which can disrupt sleep on the trail (such as sore muscles, sleep systems, environment concerns etc). And while we cannot control many of these factors, there are certain tings we can do to help calm our body and mind down, and get a better sleep. And this is what we explore in this video. 
The longer a hike goes, the more of a mental battle it can become. In this episode, we explore a range of tips a hiker can use before they head off, which can make a major difference to their mindset and enjoyment on a longer-term hike. 
In this episode I talk to Jarred (also knows as Jaycrushesit on Instagram and TikTok) and we discuss his recent hiking adventure on the Pacific Crest Trail.
Inside we explore his preparation, training, the highlights and challenges he faced on the trail, and also his plans for the future. A must listen for anyone considering a big thru-hike. 
In this episode, I interview Summit Strength graduate Helen, and she talks about her training and preparation for the Bibbulmun Track (a 1000km thru-hike). Inside, she shares some insight into the training, exercises, and workouts she performed prior to this hike and explores some challenges she faced on the trail and how she has adapted to return to life. A fantastic episode for any hiker who is interested in the Bibbulmun Track, or any other long distance thru hike. 
In this episode, I dive deep into how a hiker can get fit, strong and resilient for a big thru-hiking adventure. If you are training for a thru-hike, or have been dreaming of one in the future, this episode is for you!
