This video seeks to train and prepare you for a Grand Canyon Rim to Rim hike. I cover Grand Canyon Rim 2 Rim training, research, nutrition, food, clothing and gear. My somewhat unique Grand Canyon R2R experience included camping at the North Rim before carrying my camping gear back to the South Rim. A Grand Canyon Rim to Rim hike is a great experience, but don't take it lightly. This video give my perspective on exercise, training, nutrition, food, and hiking gear for a successful r2r hike.

I watched some rim2rim videos before doing my hike in October of '23, but I didn't see this one. You are very thorough , much more than me. I jumped out of the truck with shorts, a Tshirt and a light overshirt. I took 3 steps and took the overshirt off and threw it in the truck lol. I did well on the training all in Ohio, lots of running and workouts in our rec center on the weight machines. I could have used some of the stretching you recommend. At 66 for a first big hike it was quite a challenge, but also amazing! The lady at the info center the day before tried to talk me out of it, And I admit I thought twice about it, but I knew I had to go or I may never get another chance :).

I'm doing this on 10/5/23, your information is spot on! I did South Kiabab to Bright Angel 2 years ago, and going down was harder than going up. I lost several toe nails. Congrats on your Rim-to-Rim.

How often did u do the supplemental lunges? Everyday type thing?

@coryoutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Hi Kevin. It was usually with 3 to 4 days between. I would rotate my workouts between actual hikes, weights and lunges, and cardio. Working out about 5 days a week. Building up duration then tapering off about 10 to 12 days before the trip.
