THE 5-DAY TRAIL READY KICKSTART
If the hills are getting harder, it's time to get stronger!
A free 5-day kickstart designed to help hikers over 40 build strength, stability and confidence for the trail - without wrecking their knees, back or schedule
Does this sound familiar?
Legs burning halfway through a climb
Sore knees on the descents
Struggling to keep pace with others
Feeling exhausted before the hike is finished
Carrying a pack wipes you out faster than it should.
You're active.....but still don't feel trail ready.
Most hikers assume they just need more cardio
But hiking places very specific deamands on the body - especially after 40
Strength, stability and endurance all play a major role in how confident and capable you feel on the trail.
Limited free spots available each month.
You don't need to train like an athlete
You just need to prepare properly for hiking.
The goal of this 5-day kickstart isn't to turn you into an ultra-runner or a gym junkie.
It's to help you build the kind of trail-specific capacity that makes hiking feel easer, more controlled and more enjoyable

Why I Created Hikestrong
Hi I'm Tristan....
As a Strength and Conditioning coach & keen Hiker, I have spent years helping
everyday people improve their health and prepare for physical challenges.
I specialise in helping hikers build the strength and endurance required to take
on a challenging hike.
My goal is simple, to take you from being overwhelmed and worrying about
completing a hike to feeling strong enough to conquer it.
s free challenge is designed to help you start preparing your body for the trail.
Imagine feeling more confident on your next hike
Stronger on climbs
More stable on descents
Less fatigue carrying a pack
Not because the trail changed...
Not because you changed to lighter gear
But because your body became more prepared for it.
