People ask me how I get fit for adventure and expeditions (because I am not some amazing elite athlete, I puff and curse my way up the hills as hard as everyone else!) and it’s an honour to tell them I choose to train down at Joe’s Basecamp because of what they stand for. There’s not a single mirror in the place, just lots of cool maps and adventure inspiration. They train you hard and holistically to be able to do extraordinary things, not just to “look good for summer in a bikini”. If you want a robust (often painful… but in a good way) gym that actually cares about you and your goals, check them out. I couldn’t recommend them more highly. BEWARE – you’ll find yourself climbing a mountain, skiing across ice fields, trekking some remote corner of the globe or entering some rad obstacle course or adventure race in no time.
