General Comments

There are no specific physical conditioning requirements for this trip.  However as with most Adventure Travel trips people are likely to be exerting themselves more than they may be used to in their daily lives.  Therefore, extra conditioning before your trip is highly recommended to ensure you enjoy the trip to its' fullest.  Please see the suggestions below.

Although we will maintain a slow, easy pace during our hikes that will fit with almost anyone, you will enjoy it far greater if you exercise in advance. We recommend that you begin a fitness routine (if you're not already on one), especially one that includes some hiking, as soon as you can, to be in top shape.   Physical conditioning should be approached on two fronts:

• Cardiovascular conditioning.  Improved by activity sustained for at least 45-60 minutes.  Suggested activities include: running, bicycling, swimming, stepping, etc.
  
  

• Strength conditioning.   Improved by training with free weights or Nautilus machines, push ups, and sit-ups.
  
  

Please check with your physician before embarking on strenuous physical activity.
