Love to see your workouts, have added some of these exercises in to mine. Have a great weekend!!!

You guys are always so happy and positive. It is greatly appreciated in our current word. Thanks, see ya's on the trail

Super useful! :) Would love to see more training videos!

This is way cool! So nice to see you guys behind the scenes and working hard so you can play hard! I would love to see what you guys are eating to stay healthy and lean! Keep pushing!

You two are athletic, outdoor rockstars! Love it ❤️

Outstanding ! Thanks !

Sitting on my couch engorging myself saying "I could do that"....

this one is gold! i needed to know how you guys prepare for these things!

Just discovered your channel and love the tips for training. Currently training for a month long hiking trip and these tips have definitely assisted improve my stamina and strength. Thank you for sharing! Happy hiking!

Thanks for sharing your adventures and how you two beasts train for them. Keep them coming! 👊🏼🙌🏼👍🏼

You guys are a true inspiration. Enjoy your vids and here's to more hiking which I do try to do on weekends now and exercises of course 😉. Discovering nice trails right here in Toronto. Need to get some bikes to take onto the trails as well. Keep em coming.

Love the discipline and energy of you two!

A nice way to mix it up. It's inspiring the way you both encourage, challenge, and support each other. Rock on!

Good job guys, some great tips for everyone & I was liking all of the step variations 💪 Hope your both keeping well 👍🏃

This was super helpful. Definitely would love to see more training videos!

Super helpful! Been stuck training and step ups look smart/perfect. Thanks!

So I stumbled upon your hard work and Amazing channel about a month ago. I showed my love and she is extremely excited to plan our first hike. You guys are awsome love ya ! We live out in Bakersfield but it's a quick drive to Seqouia or LA We do it all the time. Cheers you guys!

Guys I love your training videos, I watched four of your videos already this evening, you are at my old stopping ground at Santa Monica, currently back in Huntington Beach.. keep up the great work

Yay! The long awaited training video! :) I found this pretty informative and would love if you were to release more videos of this style during your downtime. Thank you and stay safe on the trails!

Wow! So happy I found you guys! I love this video. I'm all about hiking and pullups!

So important to stay in shape.. you guys make it look easy!

This was helpful. I have been watching a number of your videos and this question did cross my mind. I know in order for me to do some of these hikes or at least harder hikes for my skill / fitness level I need more training and this was helpful. Thanks for the videos.

Wow, wow, wow!!! You two are amazing, and I love your positivity. It radiates from you.

I really enjoyed this video and appreciate you sharing your workout.

That’s was really great,can’t wait to see the rest of your training videos.You both did fantastic,Adam great job on the rope,you have tremendous upper body strength,and Elise super proud of you with your pull ups.I remember when I trained I did extensive isometrics and did resistance running,I wish those days were back,anyhow great seeing you guys in action,love you both,stay well😊❤️

Great video! Thanks for sharing your routines-awesome

Loved this video! I recently moved to Florida from living out west and was wondering how to train for hiking trips. This was awesome and would love to see more!

Love this one!!! So cool to see how you two train! I knew you could do 4! 💪🏻🤩

Both of my children were competitive gymnasts and always climbed ropes, often with hands only. Fantastic exercise. I love your workout in general because it's body weight, full range of motion and generates power through the entire range of motion.

Loved this! My fiancé and I have been getting more into bouldering so this actually helped a lot. Definitely will be adding those alternative planks to our training sessions. You two are such a joy to watch together and we love your videos! Such an underrated channel. I would love to see a video on both your favorite thru-hiking/ trail gear, shoes, brands etc.!

Great video. As a flat-lander, I’m always looking for creative ways to improve. The step-ups and bouldering are crucial. Neither of us climb really, but the scrambling at Katahdin worked muscles I didn’t know existed.

A regiment lime this will keep you two conquering the world for decades to come! Im doing an easy one.this week at Sugarloaf Big Bear... but scheduled for onion valley eastern sierras in Aug... Gorgonio and San Jacinto (no tram)... with Whitney and Shasta by may 2021!!! Your vids keep me in line. Thanks!

Love tagging along on your adventures .. love this video .. beyond inspiring, enabling .. also love Santa Monica :)

I like how you show the exercise and then cut to examples in the field. A lot of practical examples here

Thank you! I am going to add these exercises to my workouts.

Love it. You are doing more than what I did in the military.

I started a new exercise challenge with your latest workout video and step ups from this video. They definitely relate to hiking. Thanks for putting these out to help others and show the lighter side as well. We like seeing behind the curtain.

Loved this!! Thank you!! Please do more videos like these! What are your favorite shoes, gear to use?

I section hike (backpack) the AT in the Spring and Fall. Hence, I have to get in shape 2x a year. For 6-8 weeks before I do lots of cardio, lunges and wellness (stretching) yoga. I hope to add a few more things from this video as I'm hiking the 100 Mile Wilderness in Maine in Sept. Lucky me! At age 59, my goal for these adventures is to enjoy them to the max, vs. just surviving them. That requires diet and excersize in advance. P.S. I agree 100% on slowing down on the dips and pull-ups, about 4 seconds down on the dips and the same going up w/ pull-ups works nice for me.

More training videos, please! Love your energy & connection!!

I'm not sure why KZfaq was so sure that I'd like your videos but you guys bring a great friendly vibe and beautiful scenery. I'm a cyclist and hiker and if you want to build some explosive quads and it's hard to beat getting on the bike! I think what I really need to take from you guys is your obvious dedication to core workouts and diet as well so I can finally lose my last 10-15 lbs of fat and have the kind of body I can really be proud of.

I LOVE watching all your videos! You guys are the best and both easy on the eyes😎😆 not sure if you have shown or shared your nutrition or what are the usual snacks, meals and stuff you put in your backpack. I am 50 and hope to keep hiking as long as I can! Thanks so much!

I loved seeing a different type of video from you guys! You could also film a morning routine for when you go on one of your hikes. I think it'd be interesting to see how you prepare

Since you are asking... I loved the video! Getting to see you 2 do your daily life in preparation for your trips, is a great way to get to know you more! Thanks for sharing! Working on those extended arm planks now... ouch!

Great workout tips and ideas👍🏼

This is great info. I left California in 2020 and I haven't been at altitude since. Going back to visit in the fall so going to take this advice on the cardio to get the heart ready for those mountains again. Thanks for sharing your training!

Love your videos! ❤️

Nice! Loved the pull ups and the rope climb challenge

Some great stuff in here. Loved this. I would definitely like more of this. How often do you do this routine, every other day, three times a week or what

Great video Guys! Elise, It would be awesome to see a video of what you eat in a day before a hike or your overall diet to maintain your body so fit and athletic.

Great teamwork!! Lots of support and love you both share!! I'm hooked with your videos!! Adam and Elise, how do you train for jogging and running? For what noticed in your adventures is that your steps have a short stride and low from the ground to apparently have a less impact on your feet.

You make it look so easy out in the mountains. Now I know why!

would love to see a video on how you find/ choose your trails, what apps you use, how you plan for each hike ahead of time based on the information you find. you guys seem to just find the most unique under showcased places. just love it. just watched every video in 2-3 days lol screw Netflix binges #livehardlovehardbinge

Hey guys! What does your cardio training look like? Yall are studs making the long treks look so easy. Also, just wanted to say you two are seriously awesome. Your positive energy, kindness, and sense of humor is fantastic. Im binging the hell out of your vids. Keep pumping them out for us!

Nice! Thanks for sharing 👍

Great stuff guys! You guys are legit! Adam, add this to your rope climb challenge. Sit on the ground at the base of the rope, legs straight out and together, rope off to one side. Now hold this "L" shape, and begin climbing, leaving the rope off to one side (not going between your legs). Once you reach the top, don't slide down. Instead, maintain that "L" and lower yourself, hand-over-hand, with the rope off to the side! Elise, you're a machine!! 4 pull ups is bada$$.

Loved it please share more of these

Awesome job guys

Getting ready for Mt Whitney, 2 time. This will help a lot👍🏼💪🏼

I love step ups, I would average up to 30 min straight of them and if I'm really ambitious, I'll do up to 1000 in 50-55 minutes. That kind of workout makes it way easy for me to hike. You guys got some killer and basic training ideas that are really underrated.

Been waiting for this one. Thanks for sharing. How many times a week do you do this? I assume you mix it up with cardio.

Great training vid! How about endurance training vid? A gear vid would be cool too

Guys please do more of these fitness videos !! Especially liked the part in which Adam tells to slow down for gaining actual strength (this is something I will do in gym, fewer but slower reps..) We can learn more from you guys .. :-)

Thanks for sharing your hiking workout routine! Those exercises will keep you young and strong! Oh, and I also really enjoyed your video on hiking to the Palisade Glacier. -As for me, I bought a 2007 Toyota Sienna Minivan earlier this month, and I've been spending my spare time converting it to a camper van. I'm driving my minivan to King's Canyon National Park, and I'm hiking Goat Mountain on Monday! I'll let you know how it goes :-)

I love doing that kind of stuff. In my back yard, I love to use my kids monkey bars to do chin ups and I love to do lunges on my kids balance beam along with push ups on it. You guys are awesome!!!

Great job Elise on those 4 pull ups 💪😃!!

Great Video. I would love.to see a video on the subject of nutrition during your sufferfests!

Great kind of video, if you ask me. I'd love to watch more of this kind: what u guys eat?, how much u sleep? how many days of rest u allow yourselves between strenuous hikes? etc. Best regards!

All good training

Great tips on working out for hiking. I'm going to change my gym routine a little to incorporate some what you do. Curious how effective is the hop on the step up's?

Gr8 stuff U 2 👍🏻

You two deserve a SUBSCRIBE just for replying to everyone's comment!!!

I love to run, hike and do upper body exercise. I hate anything to do with legs. I have been following your leg exercises for the last few weeks. I can't believe how much easier it is to run the hills. I am still slow and steady, but it feels great when I come across a long hill and I run the whole thing. I so look up to the both of you. Daniel

Love this video! Could you please share the link for the gloves that you use? Thanks!

gonna follow this regimen

Nice job guys what I do is a balance session using a bosu ball that way my core is always stabilize that way I fill alot more what ever muscle I'm working making my joints stronger but a variation of every movement is a plus thanks guys ❤️

You guys are crazy! So many hikes in the past year...are you guys working remotely at all while traveling? I'd love to hit a fraction of the hikes you guys do while working full-time. Is it just a matter of taking advantage of every weekend? Love the videos

I've never thought to use playground equipment! 🤦 I always had it in my mind to go to a gym or buy equipment. This is a game changer. Especially for those with kids that can play while they work out.

Wow !! In the middle of this video I jumped off the kitchen table with rope in hand, And started doing chin-ups on the kitchen door frame 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪. So I'm ready for your next video 👍 Let's do it 🤗

This was a great video! I'm going to try some of these exercises. I need to work on leg strength. Last time I hiked to the Baldy Ski hut my quads felt like Jello! I'm hiking San Jacinto Monday. Thanks guys. Kowabunga!

So strong!!!

"Just" 10 slow pull ups??? Man, I just got to 10 pull ups yesterday and I thought I'd achieved a life goal.

Well done for both u very good u give good hope to carry on I am hitting 61

Great tips and workout. I hate step ups! They are a necessary evil, but so boring. I like the idea of mimicking rock scrambles by stepping up on odd objects, not just a plyo box. New subscriber, thanks for the video

Wicked good video! Are you recovered from grand canyon. We are from cardiff by the sea. You should come down to Torrey Pines to train with us. I have raced Ironman for over 20 yrs and D runs marathons. Some of your hikes rad! Not sure we could hang !

An emphatic YES!!! to both of you while I sit and watch your video. Very impressive. I think I'll have a donut :-) Love you!

Jesus Christ, you guys are beast. All I wanted to know is how in the world you get time and energy to do all these stuffs in addition with your full time job? I was under assumption this is your full time job but looks like I was wrong. Lastly, loved the video and the work out tips.

Great job, guys! How old are you both, cause you're both hella fit! How often do you have to do this training to do hiking/scrambling at your level?

Amazing

Yes, workout rockstars...

Yep ! So interesting and as well I would like to know how do you train for altitude, endurance, agile descents....

I love this video 🥰

2 to 3 reps Pullups/ pushups and 20-25 min jog Jog 4 days a week made a big difference for me, it wasn't enough to make me super strong but it made me strong enough to enjoy the hike alot more. a 15 mile hike with 3500 feet of climbing went from grueling to moderate. My mile run went from 9 minutes to 6:45, my longest run went from 2-3 miles to several miles and I got to the point where I could do several pullups. For several years I had to work full time and go to school and I fell out of this routine/gained alittle weight, its harder to get back into it and I wish our society didn't put quite so much pressure on young people its not good for peoples long term health. I don't think you can train for altitude but being in better shape, pacing yourself, eating and drinking enough reduces the chances of altitude problems. One of my best running times was a 5k race 4 days after I spent a week at 10,000 feet. I don't think the altitude made me any stronger but I had more red blood cells which makes increase the amount of oxygen my muscles were getting which made my muscles work more efficiently. This effect only lasts a week or two.

What a couple!!! ❤

Awesome

That is awesome!!! Thank you so much for the workout training tips. I have not been able to do pull-ups, my upper body is very weak. Elise, Would you recommend using bands to aid you in your training for pull-ups? Or what would you recommend for a novice like me? 🙈

Hi!! Can you do a video on your day to day diet? The foods you normally eat? Thank you!
