Description
Enhance the fitness gains from hiking! This hike combines strength, balance and coordination training interspersed with easy walking. We will target specific muscle groups in order to gain fitness benefits required for healthy aging. Exercises will all be done standing, and hiking poles are advised for some exercises where we balance on one foot. Exercises vary from easy to challenging, so there is something here for all levels of fitness. Participants are invited to do the exercises at their own comfort and fitness level. We will work on the exercises we learned at the first fitness hike, and add in a few new ones to keep it interesting!
