Fitness for Hiking

Boost your hiking game with strength training: barbell chest press for backpack stability and posture https://x.com/Hike_with_Kate/status/2031363626334867463.

Don't forget the barbell row for a balanced approach. It strengthens your back, countering the forward lean from carrying a pack. Incorporate squats to build leg strength for uphill climbs. Strong legs are essential for absorbing impact on descents. Consider deadlifts to improve overall power and core stability. A strong core protects your spine during long hikes.
