There is nothing worse than not being able to reply to someone because you have lost your breath after half an hour of physical activity such as hiking or cycling. Well… actually, there is you could miss some spectacular views of the mighty Everest Mountains, don’t see a particular animal because lack reaction and many more…
Besides whenever you are leaving for many days of a physically demanding activity your body can quickly get tired after a few days and make the rest of the trip a death-like experience.
This is why we highly recommend to all our customers some fitness training before the departure. This fitness training should be adapted to the activity and to the time it will cover.
You might think that doing some fitness is the only thing needed to do before leaving for any kind of physical activity and although doing some fitness is good a lot of people forget that stretching is just as important.
You can try joining a Yoga class for a couple of months before the departure date or do it from home. Whatever your choice is, we truly and highly recommend you stretch those muscles & joints for the sake of your experience!
This might be the most difficult preparation to access for some though if you can get to any nearby high point do not hesitate. It can be very interesting for any of you who planned to go for high-altitude trekking or an expedition to know how your body reacts to altitude.
There is nothing worse than realizing that your trekking shoes hurt your feet on the second day of your 21 Days trek. These cases are not that rare and can be the source of big frustration as it can definitely ruin a trip. Also, don’t forget to take your medicines and any other material support that could be the solution to a major problem.
A few people think about it but this can be one of the most important “preparations” before leaving for your adventure.
