When it comes to training for hiking and trekking, the majority of programs out there fall into one of two categories...

They are either:
  • Too basic (and simply involve endless walking and maybe a few squats, lunges and sit ups) 
OR
  • They are outrageously complex (and involve an unnecessary amount of numbers, calculations and gadgets)
 
And for the everyday hiker or trekker, neither of those options are great... If you try the first option, you will be leaving massive blind spots in your preparation (such as in injury prevention, preparing for elevation etc) and if you go the second option, you end up adding so much extra stress and complexity to your life...
 
That is why we created the Couch To Summit Training Program. To sit in the middle of these two extremes. It will give you everything you need to get fit, strong and injury proof for the trail.... while keeping things as uncomplicated and straightforward as possible!

Inside the program you will find a free 12 week training program, which includes a mixture of hiking, strength training and trail specific cardio. And if you put this plan into action, you can be confident you are doing the RIGHT things to help you towards a safe, enjoyable and successful adventure!
