Mountaineer Athletics
Mountain & Adventure Training
Prepare for the demands of the outdoors. I help hikers, mountaineers, backpackers and outdoor adventurers build the strength, endurance and capacity their goals require. Whether you are planning long days on the trail, ascents with a loaded pack or a multi-day adventure, your training should reflect what lies ahead.
Training built around your objective
We start with your goal, your experience, your current fitness and the time you have to prepare. From there, I develop training that progresses at an appropriate pace and addresses the demands of your route or adventure.
In the gym and outdoors
Gym sessions can combine kettlebells, bodyweight exercises and other suitable strength and conditioning work. Outdoor training can include hiking or rucking with a pack and work with a weighted vest. The balance depends on your goal, your starting point and the equipment and terrain available to you.
What we work on
- Strength and joint stability for carrying weight and moving over varied terrain
- Aerobic endurance and VO₂ max-focused interval training
- Muscular endurance and work capacity for sustained effort
- Movement control and mental focus when the work becomes demanding
Mountain and adventure training is at the heart of Mountaineer Athletics. My own experience with hiking, backpacking and mountaineering shapes how I prepare clients for the physical demands of the outdoors.
