Why It Is Good To Start Ladakh Trekking

By Cynthia Bailey


People love exercising but they find it difficult to fulfill all the requirements especially for one that is quite tough. For instance, playing football may require that you know some rules just like playing basketball. The same applies to weight lifting but these do not apply to Ladakh trekking which only requires walking around the city. If you live outside here, you will be stepping up your game by walking from your place into Ladakh and continue to walk around for a few more hours or minutes depending on what you want to achieve.

You are sure that the amount of fat in your body can reduce by walking a long distance every time. If fat accumulates in the body, you can suffer from atherosclerosis and heart failure. Being consistent with this for just 12 weeks can give you a result you will be happy with.

As you walk, you perform exercise that makes your body to use the oxygen in its circulation. As a result, it would need more oxygen to replace what is being used. Ladakh has plants and trees in its vicinity and they purify the air by giving out their oxygen while they take up the available carbon dioxide. This will help to keep your lungs healthy.

You will also get stronger bones if you make it a daily practice. Apart from that, your balance will improve as well as your posture so that you don't stagger when walking or bend unconsciously when standing. As you do this, the strength of your muscles will also increase so well.

There are different ways by which you can achieve this. One of the things you can do to make this a habit is to find someone else who has the same goals as you. This is not going to be difficult if you trek around Ladakh because even on your first day, you will see other people looking for partners. You may also want to discuss this with your spouse, friend or brother.

The number of more kilometers you can cover when you have a portable music player can be twice or thrice as much when you are doing it alone. You can prepare for this by not just buying a portable music player but also preparing a compilation of your best songs. These should be songs you are not tired of hearing even if sang repeatedly. Before you are done listening to them, your task of the day's walk must have been reached.

Being consistent is the key to getting the best results from trekking. If you do not have the strength to go one hour or more, you can do 30 minutes and still get some fine results. A good pair of canvas shoes will also make it easier for you. Don't buy an oversized one and buy one that you can easily carry.

When doing this, you may want to add other activities such as sit-ups and hill climbing. This is only advisable if your doctor knows about it and if you have enough strength. But don't waste your time on these if you are still yet to cover your primary task.
