The Training For Mountaineering Podcast

In this episode, I interview Summit Strength client Ojas about his training and preparation for mountaineering. When we first started working together, Ojas had the goal to climb Aconcagua. After months of training and hard work, his expedition was cancelled days before he flew out.
Inside, Ojas talks through his training leading to this cancelled expedition, how he reassessed and readjusted after this incredibly disappointing change of plans and his future plans and goals for his training and mountaineering.
