Summit Success: Training for Hiking, Mountaineering, and Peak Bagging

16 Weeks to the Top of the Peaks! Don't let lack of fitness stand in the way of achieving your dreams. If you've been wanting to hike but lack the fitness for it, you have to buy this book now and get started training. Over 300 pages written over 2 years with dozens of beta testers (human guinea pigs) this is the most complete book of its kind. I'll show you how to get off the couch and onto the summit in only 16 weeks of progressive training. The cardio is based on a vertical approach, with weekly mileage and vertical gain objectives. The strength training is designed to support your hiking goals without bulking you up or wearing you down. You can do everything in this book in a commercial gym, a home gym, or even outside with less than $100 in gear. It's all illustrated in detail in the book, and additional materials can be found online as described in this training manual. I've hiked and climbed around the world on my Seven Summits Quest and I want to share my success and training methods with you. You owe it to yourself to get this book and get to the top. 338 pages, 64,000 words, 88 photos
