Walks, Hikes, and Loaded Carries

Walking is the least sexy exercise of all time, and it’s also one of our favorites. Which probably says a lot about us...

Now before you give a giant yaaaaaawn and click away, let’s get to some of the topics we’re gonna cover that might just be a bit different form what you expect:

• Ok, honestly, the first few minutes probably start exactly like you’re expecting...but then things start to get more interesting
• A few ways to sneak some walking into your routine, even if you live in the ‘burbs and there’s literally nothing within walking distance
• Using walks to improve posture and body alignment
• The best way to start incorporating breath training into your walks
• Why we don’t have a blanket recommendation for shoes
• How much loaded carries suck, and why they’re a big part of Ryan’s current training (now we’re getting to the good stuff...)
• The dead-simple way to add some casual loaded walking without going “full ruck”

In other words, this isn’t just 45 minutes of two guys saying “um, you should walk some, it’s good.” There’s some real meat in this episode. If you’re already walking regularly, you’ll love all the different ways to make it even better for you. If you’re not, we hope to convert you.

Stick in in your earhole and hit the road.
