It's also very important to train for the 16 ounce mug curls after the hike. It's best to train with the actual fluid you will be drinking, but not every day.
^^^^I think this is the sole training regimen i can achieve. LOL.
Thanks all for the replies and suggestions. John is right.
*Never go over 85% or at target heart rate for training purposes unless otherwise advised/ required by medical proffesional for diagnostic/medical purposes.
The ideal rate is between 75% - 85% of your total heart rate.*
Abhijit, im glad theres one here from the forum i will be hiking with on that date. But with your training regimen, ill be seeing you going down from the summit while im still trying to reach the summit, lol. I hope it wont be that bad though. Ill be camping monday in horseshoe meadows and at portal the night before d-day. See you there :-)
Since theres no pm/interest on my "offer", I just paid for the "single permit" for july 23.
I wish everyone good luck and have a safe/healthy training and hike. Thank you all for the great tips and suggestions esp on training regimen. I hope someone will find this thread helpful.
Again thank you all so much and see you out there
