Thank you all, for the will to respond so promptly.
I think that Scott’s idea to merge AshRick’s prefatigue with roller skiing will do the job.
I will give it a try and see how it goes in the 16week mountaineering plan.
thanx again!
hi Scott,
I was a mountain marathon runner and climber since 2007 but since 2015 i have developed an autoimmune arthritis/spondilitis that, apart from pain that I had initially ignored, it caused knee bone edemas in femoral condyle and, although, under medication, it is now in remission, the knee is too sensitive if undergoes violent vibrations like with running or off saddle cycling or serious climbing (as the whole pressure goes right to the internal femoral condyle).
So i have developed other ways to do things and stay in shape, like cycling and openwater swimming, and I can still, hike and do mountaineering during the winter (with bearable recover pains).
So I am planning – while i still can and after the past hard winter due to covid – to do some serious winter ascents, at first here in Greece and then maybe sometime next year in Alps.
That’s why i am looking for a structured program that will protect me from further injuries and allow me build further my abilities.
i know it can hardly get replaced, but i have to find otherways around it. i do hike, of course, but it is not that convenient to replace running with hiking especially during the week and – even worst – during the winter!
