I did see a sports medicine Dr. She also hikes 200 miles of the PCT every year. I feel pretty good about what she's telling me to do. :)

Thanks... parts of my knees are already starting to improve. I'm pumped!

I've already started doing more squats and lunges. :)

thanks and already working on it!

That's a "massive" part of the plan ;) No really I lost about 15 lbs and plan to lose at least another 50 more before I hit the AT next year, so I couldn't agree with you more!

Apparently that's part of it, the IT band anyway. Range of motion in my hips is bad... I feel pretty confident I can fix it with PT, yoga, and exercise over the next year. :)

I use poles. :) I had them when it happened. It was just a case of too much for me at that time.

Thanks! I'll be ok. I was disappointed at first but then I realized it's just an opportunity to be even more prepared next year! :)

On a training hike I was going farther and with more weight than I ever had before. Thing were going well until I started back down a mountain here in the Seattle area. Searing pain on the side of my...

Sounds good... I'm on the 8 mile per day plan unless my fitness takes a giant leap forward over the next few weeks.... could happen. In which case I'll be on the 10 mile per day plan until Neel's Gap...

I just wanted to know if anyone else is starting March 22nd and wanted to say hello.

OK... went out for 5 miles yesteray, with pack and going up and down a mountain. I had on exofficio boxers... zero chafing. All I did beforehand was put on some zeasorb. I went up a size in the...

I just tried my exofficio boxers again today. I've lost weight and no chafing except on my backside, which is a major step in the right direction. This is good. I'll try the under armour ones next...

You mean these? http://www.amazon.com/Original-Boxerjock®-Bottoms-Under-Armour/dp/B005CR6P96/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1359017401&sr=8-3&keywords=under+armour+original+underwear

Thanks! I'm willing to give anything a go. :)

Your point is...? I really don't get what you're saying. I've tried long compression shorts and I chafed. I may just have to deal with it.

That's true. I don't chafe down my legs. I can walk an easy 8 miles without any problems except at the very top where my legs turn into my perineum (aka taint).

The problem is that I'm fat. The fat at the top of my legs rubs together in a place where compression shorts don't ever go. When they do go up there, I found out over the last couple of days, that I...

Thanks for the response here and there! I'm trying to figure out how to delete this thread now. :)

I bought some XL yesterday according to the size guide. Then I read online they fit small. I'll try some XXL. My wife, who is pretty athletic, told me they fit too tight.

Thanks for all the...

I posted this on another part of the forum but it seems like here gets more action!

Hi everyone. Like the title says I have a the Kimtah rain jacket and now I'm looking for a layer to keep me...

I chafe right at the top of my legs where no underwear will ever touch. I'll try this stuff out. I appreciate it!

I've tried body glide before and it wears off after about a half hour. I'm a bit knocked-kneed too... when it rains it pours I guess... ;)

Which underwear are you using if you don't mind me asking? So far the things I chafe the least in are just Hanes boxers. I'm going to try a bigger size of compression shorts.

Hi everyone. Like the title says I have a the Kimtah rain jacket and now I'm looking for a layer to keep me warm. Right now I have an older Campmore polartec fleece. It works well for training but I...
