In a couple of weeks time I am away to Pakistan to guide the worlds 9 th highest mountain, Nanga Parbat. Many people ask me how do I keep fit and prepare myself for guiding such amazing mountains and as you can see below here I am in Florida. Its tough eh? Resistance training by running with a pack full of sand in the sea is pretty good and rowing along inter-coastal waterways is good for the core, arms and shoulders. Grappling with Alligators is something that I try to avoid!This simple blog gives informal updates of some of our activities. For information about being in the outdoors with myself or other qualified IFMGA guides who work with me, or for industrial work at height feel free to contact me - email: info@teamascent.co.uk
