    When trekkers start out on long descents, you often hear them say that the uphill climb was easier. This is because they don't know the right technique of descending. There IS a right technique of descending down a slope, which Swathi shows you with illustrations in this video.
    These points can change the way you descend down a slope - even if you have a knee injury! Take a look!

    All good points, many I have adopted. Ultimately, the thing that made the greatest difference for me was CONDITIONING. My first 1 or 2 years of long distance hikes were agonizing and torturous during descents. It took me about 3 years to condition my knees to extended descents.

      Second that I had my first long hike a couple months ago and because I didn't cut my toenails the top of my boots were slamming against my toenails on the way down ended up turning completely black. Tie your boots tight and cut your toenails

    • @swathichatrapathy1058
      @swathichatrapathy1058 6 лет назад +4

      Hi Jennifer, I guess your only way out is to consciously make your knees loose while climbing downhill. If you do this for an hour or so, you'll automatically keep your knees loose after that. Another thing to do is take a trekking pole. use two if needed. These will give you that extra confidence to let your knees loose.

    • @julians.2597
      @julians.2597 5 лет назад +1

      No, because the number is relatively made up, however, she is completely right. When using them correctly, they reduce the strain on your body dramatically. My guess is, that you don't have good technique with poles, so that's why you don't find them useful.
