📣 Our community has moved!
After several years of incredible discussions, we've moved our community to a new home on Reddit where we can better serve our growing family of mountain and endurance athletes.

- Training advice from our coaching team
- Peer support and motivation
- Gear discussions and recommendations
- Trip reports and inspiration
This forum will remain archived so you can still access all the valuable content and conversations from over the years. However, all new discussions and coaching support now happen on Reddit.

Assuming that your HR zones are correct (have you done an AeT test yet?) and if you are just starting out, and the achilles can handle it, I’d recommend a hilly hike as you’re more likely to climb into zone 2 which is where you’ll build most fitness. As fitness improves, you can add weight to these efforts.
