Life’s an Adventure: Where’s your Dave Turpin
As if it’s not
interesting enough, he may need to expedite his descent to avoid incoming
weather that can add another layer of hazards to the day. Before he even starts out
on his trip he has some advantages working for him: ·
He’s relatively young (early thirty’s). ·
He’s actively athletic… plays competitive hockey 2-3 times a week. ·
He’s going with at least one friend/associate who has attempted to
climb the mountain but didn’t quite make it…
Hopefully he will not underestimate the task at hand. ·
He recognizes that in order to succeed he’ll need to be in the best
functional condition of his life… and that getting there will require a
professionally designed road map. And then there are a few
disadvantages working against him that he simply can not overcome: ·
He’s inexperienced at mountaineering.
He has a friend who’s been there, but there’s no replacement for
first-hand tried it, been there, done it, got the tee shirt. ·
Training in ·
He’ll have to face down his own fears and resolve his internal
conflicts. He probably doesn’t even
know what they are yet… so preparing for them is somewhat futile. Preparing for his climb
requires commitment and unwavering resolve.
The goal is well defined:
Getting to the top and back safe and secure. The pre-event activities need to be
laser-focused and congruent to the task at hand. Most clients at Desk
Jockey Fitness are not preparing for action adventures. Instead they are trying to improve their
flexibility, balance, strength and power to allow them to overcome more
practical challenges than climbing a volcanic summit… Like placing an infant in the car seat
without throwing out their back… Or
taking a bag of grass seed out of the trunk…
Or pushing on a commercial grade door to get into one of You may not be planning
an ascent up a mountain, but I’ll bet that if you gave it some thought you
have your own functional challenges ahead that could benefit from a bit of
encouragement, guidance and accountability.
Are you ready to assess and address your own personal summits?
