It's surprisingly hard to find detailed fitness and training
information that relates directly to the outdoors, but the
bodyresults.com web site goes some way towards filling the gap.
It's an American venture aimed specifically at walkers and
climbers that's packed with climbing- and trekking-specific training
information and suggestions including specific training programmes,
for, say, conditioning for the alpine climbing season.
There's also more general information including a look at a small
number of specific mountains including Denali and Kilimnajaro, plus
if you're feeling particularly motivated and are flush, you can shell
out around $45 per month for a personalised web training
programme.
One of the best, and in fact the only, mountain-specific fitness
sites we've come across. Take a look at www.bodyresults.com,
we reckon you'll be adding it to your favourites. Thanks to TGO for
alerting us to the existence of this excellent site.
