In this video, we explore the benefits of hiking, focusing on both physical and mental health. I discuss how hiking with undulating terrain improves cardiovascular endurance, strengthens muscles, tendons, and joints, and helps maintain joint flexibility. By using mindful techniques such as peripheral vision, you can improve your biomechanics and control your heart rate during the hike. The experience of immersing in nature—listening to the wind, waterfalls, and birds—offers not just a physical workout but also stress relief and mental clarity. Hiking is an excellent way to combine fitness with mindfulness, making it perfect for anyone seeking holistic well-being.
