#167 - Secrets to Unlock Your Hiking Potential w/ Chase Tucker
Today I interview hiking trainer Chase Tucker about improving hiking performance and longevity by identifying and delaying a person’s “breakdown point.” We discuss why many hikers only address fitness after pain starts, how knee pain often traces back to hip and foot mechanics, and how trekking poles can provide forward propulsion and downhill support when used correctly. Chase explains assessing movement from the foot up, building foot-to-hip connection for uphill efficiency, and why heavy lifters may still struggle on long hikes without aerobic capacity and proper biomechanics. He introduces breath training via the BOLT (body oxygen level) test to measure carbon dioxide tolerance, demonstrates it live, and connects improved breathing to altitude comfort and reduced altitude sickness. They also cover dopamine fasting to reduce constant stimulation and increase presence.
