Learn How To Train For Hiking

Inside, we explore a new hiking training course that shows you how to build a personalized training plan to increase strength, endurance, and trail resilience.

​How to Build a Hiking Training Plan for Strength, Endurance, and Stamina

A
​fter being in the works for so long, today I have officially launched a brand new course, 'Training For Hiking Do It Yourself Course'.

And today I want to walk you through what this course is, why it exists, and why I think it is going to be such a powerful resource for so many hikers out there.

If you have been following me for a while, you probably already know this about me:

I am hugely passionate about training for hiking.

I know, without a doubt, that following a structured and specific training program can be one of the best things a hiker can do to feel capable and confident on their adventures.

To reduce the risk of aches, pains and injuries. To increase the chance of success. And ultimately to just have a good time out on the trail.

After years and years and years of helping hikers train properly, I have seen firsthand just how effective this stuff can be.

Now, as much as we help a lot of hikers each year through our online personal training programs, I also know something else to be true.

There are a lot of people out there who simply do not need full coaching.

Maybe you are the type of person who thinks:
​

• "I do not really need someone to lay everything out for me."
• "I just want to learn the information so I can figure things out for myself."

Or maybe, realistically, on the financial side, you do not want to invest in full coaching right now.

And either of those situations is completely fair enough.

Over the years, a lot of people have asked me the same question.

Is there something in between?

Something that sits between the free content and the full coaching programs?

Something that helps me figure this out for myself?

And finally, after a long time, we have built exactly that.

The Training for Hiking Do It Yourself Course.

This online course is designed to teach you how to create your own strength and conditioning program to support your hiking.

So you can access all the benefits of effective training for hiking. In a cost-effective way, which you can do at your own pace.

Inside the course, there are a number of modules that walk through everything step by step.

Here are just some of the things included.

• •Clear instructions on how to plan your training hikes (and ensure a successful build around whatever schedule you may have)
  
  
• A 'recipe list' of great cardio workouts for hikers (which include outdoor, home and gym workouts to choose from) 
  
  
• A 'plug and play' system to create effective strength training workouts (so you can build your strength and endurance for the trail in a way that suits your preferences)
  
  
• Simple directions on how to adjust your training if you are preparing for a big trip OR if you just want to build your fitness for regular hiking 
  
  
• Time-efficient strategies on how to aid your body's recovery and relaxation in between sessions (helping you stay fresh and ready!)
  ​
• Some valuable insights to help you stay consistent with your training over the long term (because consistency is the 'magic ingredient' when it comes to any training journey!)

Learn How to Train for Steep Ascents, Descents, and Uneven Terrain

The way the course works is very simple.

Step One:  

You sign up and get access to our brand new education platform. Inside are video lessons that break everything down clearly and in detail.

Step Two:

You take the action points and instructions and build your own training program.

This includes your hiking plan, strength training, cardio sessions, and recovery work.

All specific to hiking and structured around your life, preferences, and needs.

Step Three:

You go out and put your new workouts and training plan into action.

Now to be clear, step three is on you.

This is not a coaching program.

We are not supervising your sessions.

But step one and step two will give you everything you need to do this properly!

Now, a few important notes about this course:

1) This is a 'do it yourself' course.

You will NOT receive a pre-made training plan.

You will NOT receive coaching support.

This course teaches you how to build your own plan.

2) This course is not for early-stage rehab or injury recovery.

If you are fresh off surgery or dealing with a serious injury, see a physio first.

3) This is not a weight loss course.

This course is about improving hiking performance, strength, resilience, and confidence on the trail.

4) This course is not a 'quick fix' solution

You will need to learn the material, build your plan, and actually do the work.

But if you are a hiker who wants to get fit, strong, and resilient for your adventures...

And if you are self-motivated and willing to put in some effort...

This could be incredibly valuable for you.

It is practical. It is cost-effective (only $47 47USD). And I truly believe it will help a lot of hikers out there.
