Heat Training For Canyon Hikers With Coach Arnie
Manage episode 431531839 series 3562726
Summer hiking in the Grand Canyon can be dangerous. Fatally so, in fact. But if you're going to take it on, at least do yourself (and those who might otherwise be forced to rescue you) the service of being physically and mentally prepared for an extreme physical activity in an extreme environment. Today, exercise physiologist and Canyon vet Coach Arnie shows us how becoming heat adapted is possible—if you're willing to put in the work.
