If you have an uphill hike in your future, you may be worried about how your body is going to hold up over mile after mile of altitude gain. Don't be scared.
Depending on what kind of hike you are going to take, you'd better make a good plan accordingly to ensure the effectiveness of your hike. For example, if your hike is very steep, add some stair sets to your workout by climbing stairs every day or going to a gym where there are stair-step machines that will help you get into climbing shape.
Uphill climbing requires hard work from your core muscles. Your legs, feet and knees work overtime when you go uphill and downhill. If you carry a backpack, your upper body, including your arms and shoulders, also plays a big part. If you've been jogging for twenty minutes, try building up to forty minutes with a hilly hike while wearing a backpack. If you've been walking for your exercise, alternate longer walks with walks that include hills. And you can also build new muscles by doing weight lifting at home.
Of course, to guarantee safe and effective training, don't forget to add stretching to your routine. Be sure to stretch your body thoroughly before and after your training.
Even if you think you can't complete your full workout, promise yourself that you'll at least get started. Chances are that once you get moving, you'll keep on until you finish. Then you can enjoy the satisfaction of getting in great shape for your hike one day in the near future!

Asking for a raise can be a discouraging prospect for any employee. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} If you're a female employee seeking a raise, it matters to approach that conversation strategically. Here are a few tips for pulling it off successfully.
Do your research.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#} So if you're making a case for a pay increase, you'll need to gather some data on what others in similar positions are earning. To that end, do some research on sites like Salary. com. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Remember to collect the average earnings for all workers in your position and make your case for why you deserve to be paid similarly.
Don't get emotional.
Women are often accused of getting emotional on the job. In fact, it's that so-called sensitive nature that causes some people to claim they're uncomfortable working with and promoting female employees. That's why it's extremely important to keep you cool during a salary negotiation. Be specific and present hard evidence of your value to the company. Try to focus on your positive contributions, rather than the negative feelings. And although the discussion might get heated, be sure not to yell or, worse yet, cry while it's going down. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
Given many news stories about how men out-earn women, you may tend to draw on some of that data as a reason for getting a raise. But be very careful about using that argument, because unless you have definitive proof that your male colleagues - with the same exact titles, experience, and responsibilities—are making more money than you, you're better off avoiding that angle.
