Until I get a decent exercise program, I'll just keep adding little things on to what I already do. Last night I made up one for my quadriceps: I put ten liters of water in my pack and went up and down the stairs in my house. Wow. By the time I'd done ten round-trips to the second floor, I was definitely feeling the burn.
They say that the best exercise to prepare you for backpacking is backpacking. Well then. Maybe if I do this stair thing a bunch, my legs will get all studly and I can do Half Dome next year!
And if I'm especially lucky I'll magically fit into those nice leather pants again. :-)
