Hike Strong: The Complete Guide to Building Trail Strength, Endurance, and Confidence for Hiking and Backpacking helps alleviate the fitness anxiety that some experience when tackling a mountain. This transformative fitness guide is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who want to confidently enjoy the trail.

Hiking and backpacking are unique sports that require a blend of strength, conditioning, and athleticism to handle rugged terrain. Written by a licensed hiking guide and professional strength and conditioning coach, this book offers a practical, step-by-step approach to preparing readers physically and mentally for any trailhead.

In Hike Strong, readers will find training programs that combine strength-building, conditioning, balance, and mobility tailored specifically to the demands of hiking and backpacking. The guide teaches that strength training is the way to properly prepare for the demands of the backcountry, moving away from the conventional wisdom of just running. The author’s training modalities have been proven by the successful results clients have experienced in the mountains. This book provides the tools to help readers feel strong and perform well from trailhead to summit and back again.

Features:

  • Training programs combining strength-building, conditioning, balance, and mobility.
  • Practical, step-by-step approach to physical and mental preparation.
  • Insights into the why and how behind specialized hiking fitness programs.
  • Proven training modalities for backcountry demands.
