Some weeks ago I was hiking some mountains with some friends and found out that their walking speed in the mountains surpassed mine. This got me interested in increasing my own conditioning.
If I want to be able to hike mountains quicker and more easily than now, what would be the best way of doing that ? Hiking mountains would of course be an option, but I am not living in an area where there are many mountains and I also think that hiking two or three times a week in the mountains would not be good for me knees.
So the choice is really between a stationary bike and using kettlebells. Do you think using a kettlebell program such as The One from Neupert, or the conditioning part of ROP, could increase my capacity to hike mountains easily and bicycle easily with my friends, or do I need to start running or using a stationary bike to achieve this ?
What is people´s experience with this ? Have anyone of you achieved really good longdistance conditioning simply by doing kettlebells ?
I would be grateful for all answers
