Staying Limber on the Road to Everest Base Camp
Long days of Everest trekking can leave your muscles stiff and prone to injury. Incorporating simple yoga poses into your Mount Everest expedition can speed up recovery and keep you moving toward Base Camp.
Hiking uphill puts massive strain on the hip flexors. Pigeon pose is the best way to release this tension, ensuring you are ready for the steep climbs on your Mount Everest summit approach.
The rocky trails of the Khumbu are hard on the lower legs. Downwards dog stretches the entire posterior chain, a vital practice for any Everest trekking enthusiast.
After reaching your teahouse, lying with your legs up a wall for 10 minutes helps drain fluid and reduces the 'heavy leg' feeling common during a Mount Everest expedition.
Your body is your vehicle to the Mount Everest summit region. Treat it well with daily stretching to ensure a successful and pain-free journey.
