_________________
If you want to be ready to make the most of the hiking trails this year, these are my top six exercises for strength and stability. Work these into your current hiking training and start to see improvement right away.
These exercises are going to work on a strong core, hips, legs and of course, feet to get you ready for a day out hiking.
➡️ If you have any injuries or if any of these exercises don't feel good, stop right away. If you can't do one of these exercises yet, don't be discouraged! Even you working towards doing it is going to help you build strength that you can use out on your next hike.

Just found your channel and have incorporated this into my routine. Due to past activity levels, both knees have been replaced, the last one 3 months ago. After a couple of hikes this weekend, including a really steep hike Saturday, I realize there's much more work to be done, and I so look forward to getting back to where I was. These body weight routines, similar to others learned at physical therapy, have been very beneficial. Thank you for posting.

So glad that you found us! To go hiking after three months after a knee replacement is incredible! Keep up the great work and we'll get you out on the mountain more often!

Great video. This is the 1st video of yours I’ve watched. I would like to suggest something that maybe you covered in another video. I did a lot of hiking last year and ended up with plantar fasciitis; I think any discussion of fitness for hiking should address flexibility, in this case loose calves to avoid plantar fasciitis.

Great suggestion thank you! I do have a video on lower legs and hiking recovery that might be a good watch too!

How tall is your box?

@wildrfitness 5 ай бұрын

The box is 12/14/16 inches depending on what side it is on! I tell my clients you can use the bottom step of a set of stairs, all the way up to a kitchen chair.

It would have been good to see the exercises in detail. The video of the first 4 exercises were flashed for a few seconds. Not enough time to really see what is being done. Thanks

Thank you very much for this video. But I do agree that it was quite fast explained ( English is not my mother tongue) and the video went by very quick. I hope you consider this reaction positive.’’ I liked the content very much but I am afraid that I will do the exercises the wrong way…. Kind greetings

Thank you! I'm going through my list of video ideas right now, so I can 100% add that to the list :D

@bronwenhook6088 9 ай бұрын

@@wildrfitnessI also felt it was too fast, and too technical. You could probably keep the same script if you kept the camera on the person doing the exercises.

@SouthwestTed 9 ай бұрын

Rewind the video, it’s KZfaq you can watch it as many times you want

@marcohanig176 2 ай бұрын

Agree 100%. The exercises are interesting but I am left with no idea how to do them correctly. Almost useless.
