25.01.2022 BRING ON SUMMER hiking in nature! It's a real treat training with women who are prepared to jump into the nearest rock pool fully clothed - hair wet, makeup ruined, clothes dripping...we love it and we laugh and we feel amazing for doing it! . .... . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health #rockpools See more
24.01.2022 Lovely Lane Cove hiking today with these strong adventurous women! Not put off by the weather, they were rewarded with a sparkling 16km hike with waterfalls, stunning bushland and good friends!
24.01.2022 Finding the right direction can be a challenge. Sometimes we need the support of others to show us the way and give us the confidence to try new things. As a coach at Diamonds in the Rough Adventures, I am privileged to be able to offer that support to many women and then watch their amazing journeys unfold. Thank you!... . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health See more
24.01.2022 Hiking the Hump Ridge Track in New Zealand is in our sights for 2021. We can't wait for this wilderness adventure - an iconic 3-day hike on the south coast of the South Island with extraordinary views of the Fiordland Mountains, the southern ocean and surrounding lakes. Carrying our day-packs only - our gear is transported for us by Helicopter- and climbing into a warm bed in a cosy lodge at night will ensure good rest for the long hiking days.... . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health See more
23.01.2022 Our connections are real! You really can't hide when you are scrambling on a rocky trail, sweating profusely on a long hot ascent, tramping through the mud or crossing a fast-flowing creek. We smile together minus the makeup, the manicured nails or the blow waved hair! Freedom to be ourselves and be loved for it is magic!... . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health See more

22.01.2022 Should you train in the sand for hiking? YES and NO! The research shows that exercising in the sand compared to a hard surface,... increases the intensity of the workout uses more muscle groups in the lower limbs requires an increase in range of motion in the joints and muscles may increase strength and flexibility Research also shows that there are some associated injury risks to be aware of if you have Achilles, knee or ankle limitations. Risks of impact injuries from falls are less - that makes sense. Who doesn't love a good roll in the sand! So what is the answer? - for HIKING, the benefits of training on an uneven surface like sand are significant but a cautionary approach is wise...and who doesn't love a beachside training session! Start with short sessions, a light pack, moderate-intensity and observe the effects on your body post-training. If you are likely to encounter snow on your trek (and you don't live in the mountains), then sand is a good surface to train in because it mimics some of the qualities of snow. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health
22.01.2022 There was definitely something wild in the water today at Woronora Trek Training! Can you relate?
21.01.2022 Today we trained for hiking through the bush...and this is our gym! We love surprising our Diamonds with amazing local places like these spots near Heathcote!

21.01.2022 Trekking in the wilderness has its fair share of rain and dark moments! Are you a glass-half-full or a glass-half-empty kinda person? We don't try to avoid these moments but instead, we aim to always stay positive in these situations. Yes...GLASS-HALF-FULL! This helps us to be more productive in solving problems, reduce stress and to better able to work through challenging moments.... Here are some tips on how to BE MORE POSITIVE! IDENTIFY your key areas to change - ask yourself which situations you usually think negatively about, whether it is when the weather is cold, you are near a cliff edge or when you are rock scrambling. Start small by focusing on one area to approach in a more positive way. STOP yourself - regularly stop and evaluate what you're thinking. If you find that your thoughts are mainly negative, try to find a way to put a positive spin on them. SMILE - Give yourself permission to smile or laugh, especially during difficult times. Seek humour in everyday happenings. SURROUND yourself with positive people. Make sure those in your life are positive, supportive people you can depend on to give helpful advice and feedback. POSITIVE SELF_TALK - Start by following one simple rule: Don't say anything to yourself that you wouldn't say to anyone else. Be gentle and encouraging with yourself. . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health #positivity
21.01.2022 Hiking in nature is as much about mental health as it is about physical health! DID YOU KNOW? "More than three-quarters of people claim their mental health has worsened since the outbreak of COVID-19, a new study by the Black Dog Institute has revealed."... and...more than 50% of those surveyed reported feeling lonely. These are compelling reasons to get a group of friends together and go hiking! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health

19.01.2022 Yoga and Trekking go hand in hand. This year we've introduced our Diamonds to Vinyasa Flow Practice and enjoyed the benefits of increased mobility, flexibility and strength. It has also improved our recovery after long hikes and hard training sessions. We're getting to know more about how our body moves and works and explored ways to relax and take a timeout!... . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health #Vinyasa See more

18.01.2022 So, you've set your goals for this week and you've lined up an exercise catch-up with a friend...here's what to do next... DIAMOND TIP 3 Mix it up - with a little more breathing space, it's a great time to try new things, see new places and learn new skills - find a new hiking trail, hire a kayak and get out on the water, jump in the surf, have a go at stand up paddleboarding, play tennis, ride a bike...try a yoga class or app.... DIAMOND TIP 4 Rise and Shine - it's summertime so save your sleep-ins to the dark days of winter - set the alarm and get up and outdoors to enjoy the best time of day and exercise in the morning. You'll feel great the rest of the day knowing you've done your exercise and anything extra in the evening is a bonus.
18.01.2022 We get wet and muddy and so does our gear! Taking care of your expensive hiking and paddling gear is essential and NUMBER 1 is cleaning it after a trip. It will last a whole lot longer if you follow the advice. Here are a few simple tips...... * avoid harsh detergents (use mild soap or wool wash) * use a nail brush to remove excess mud * dry your gear in the shade rather than full sun * use water to wash off the salt from exposure to seawater - especially around buckles, zips and your trekking poles * read the instructions or google the manufacturer for more information on caring for your gear . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health #gearcare #equipment
18.01.2022 HOW'S YOUR CORE Planking requires good control over your core muscles and so does hiking...particularly when you are carrying a backpack. A strong, engaged core will help protect your lower back and assist with balance on uneven surfaces. If you're training for a hike don't neglect your core muscles - we regularly include dynamic core exercises like the 'rocking' plank in our Trek training sessions.... . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health See more

14.01.2022 Super fun and challenging day out at Macquarie Pass' Rainforest Canyon near Wollongong. Slippery dips, waterfall abseils, rock hopping, rock pool jumps, steep hiking and lots of laughs and challenges accepted. Congratulations to these fabulous Diamonds and their leader Coach Jacqueline Conway and thanks to the expert guides from Eagle Rock Adventures for ensuring a safe, fun day out!
13.01.2022 Join a GYM and get fit for hiking and trekking! NOT SO FAST! Do this and you will miss out on the MOST IMPORTANT fitness element you will be needing. Training in the gym is excellent for building strength and cardio fitness BUT to get truly ready for hiking on trails you need to get outdoors and train on a variety of SURFACES!... Carpets, foam mats, treadmills ARE NOT the same as stony trails, sand, mud, snow, scree and slippery rocks. Outdoor Trek Training is 2 hours of fitness in nature designed to get you fit for your hike or trek. We seek out uneven surfaces made from all types of natural materials to train on. This allows our clients to develop balance, core control, ligament strength, mental focus and confidence to take on all types of terrain on their treks. It's also important to test and know your hiking boots and shoes - the grip, the support, the limitations. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health

13.01.2022 Happy New Year from Diamonds!
13.01.2022 Could be your lucky day! Join Coach Jacq and the team. We have just had a spot become available on our November 22nd Rainforest Canyon Trip (Macquarie Pass, near Wollongong). Perfect to get the adrenalin flowing and try something NEW! No previous experience necessary. https://www.ditradventures.com.au//rainforest-canyon-daybo
12.01.2022 Is a KAYAKING adventure on your to-do list? Paddling the Hawkesbury is well within your reach. A day or more out on the river surrounded by pristine national park bushland is just as it sounds - tranquil, relaxing, invigorating...but not always...there's more. We explored the Hawkesbury River over 4 days recently and Barbara fills you in on all the highlights in her blog below ... https://www.ditradventures.com.au//kayaking-the-mighty-haw
12.01.2022 It's time to get back to Trek Training !!! We are back! Get prepared for your next adventure with Coaches Michele, Jo, Clare and Jacq in our weekly 1 and 2hr outdoor training sessions in your area. Check details on our website www.ditradventures.com.au We've got an exciting plan for 2021 to prepare more women to enjoy trekking with confidence and skill.... . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health See more
12.01.2022 Our final and important Spring Series hike today at Waterfall raised $790 for the CureBrainCancerFoundation. For further donations, you can follow this link. https://www.curebraincancer.org.au/donations Thanks to all these generous ladies for supporting this event and sharing a fun morning in nature. A spectacular summit, challenging scrambles, flowing waterfalls and time to reflect.
12.01.2022 Nothing wrong with sitting on a log, a rock or the ground BUT...we do love our comfy light-weight foldable camp chairs! When pack weight isn't an issue, these foldup chairs are a very welcome bit of luxury when camping in the bush or by a river. They are very strong, weigh less than 1kg and take up very little space when folded. There are a few different brands with Helinox being the market leader.... TOP TIP: practice assembling and folding before your trip or you could be in for a game of camp chair Twister. . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health

11.01.2022 Don't make the same mistake with your NEW YEAR Resolutions! Here's a better way to start the New Year feeling positive and ready for "action". https://www.ditradventures.com.au//forget-about-setting-go
11.01.2022 WOW! It's Christmas Eve 2020. Time to reflect on the year that was and share your memories with your loved ones. It's also a time to remember the GOALS you have set yourself for 2021 - tell others your plans and what you need to do to achieve them.... Enjoy the festive season but don't fall into the trap of "I'll get back on track once the New Year starts". Do little things now to make sure you don't lose all the gains you have made to this point. You will avoid creating a much harder road to achieving your goals. WALK every day, STAIRS every day and find all those INCIDENTAL exercise opportunities like carrying your shopping instead of using a trolley, take the stairs, not the lift, stand up at the office, walk to the shops, squats while you brush your teeth...
11.01.2022 Need a helping hand to get you through the festive season? We've got 3 Days of Diamond Tips to help you keep your fitness and nutrition on track so you don't go backwards on your goals. DIAMOND TIP 1 Break up the holiday season into single weeks - set some exercise and nutrition goals for the week coming and tell a friend your plan.... DIAMOND TIP 2 Be social (not just with your celebrations) - hang out with friends who have similar goals to you, who motivate you and who will keep you accountable to your goals. Plan some exercise dates together.
10.01.2022 You got out of bed early and you've done your exercise...YES? Here are our final tips! DIAMOND TIP 5... Be Prepared - plan and prepare healthy foods like this delicious vegetarian couscous salad (whipped up by our guides on a remote beach in South West Tasmania) and have them in the fridge to snack on. Protein Balls are my favourite snack. Eat something healthy before you go out to that Christmas event so you don't go feeling hungry and dive straight into handfuls of nuts and pretzels. DIAMOND TIP 6 All Things in Moderation - including the booze - alternate your drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) with a glass of sparkling water. When faced with the tasty looking Christmas party spread - ENJOY! and try a bit of everything, but keep the sample sizes small and avoid going back for seconds. Portion control on those desserts too folks! DIAMOND TIP 7 Reward Yourself - but not with food (that includes chocolate) - watch a movie, lie in the sun in a hammock, get a massage, buy yourself that little gift, listen to music or your favourite podcast.
10.01.2022 This weekend a team of Diamonds are paddling 4 days and 3 nights camping on the Hawkesbury River all the way to Palm Beach with some summit hiking along the way. The photos so far look amazing. What a great adventure!
10.01.2022 What does your night out in the city look like? Be different - put on a head torch and a backpack and explore the city on foot and get fit doing it. These ladies love it! Our Monday and Wednesday evening Diamond Training sessions are heating up as the days get longer and daylight saving kicks in! ...

08.01.2022 Our amazing Diamonds South Coast Track team is back in Hobart after an incredible 9 days trekking in the Tasmanian wilderness. One of the hardest treks in Australia...masses of deep mud, punishing ascents, the longest most gnarly rainforest descent ever, 18kg packs on our backs, up to 14hour days of walking, countless river crossings...it challenged us all but we rose to every challenge and explored this most beautiful remote and unique part of the world. Loved sharing this adventure with these strong awesome women. So proud of you all!! Here are just a few pics...more to come!
08.01.2022 Our Tasmanian wilderness trek on the South Coast Track begins tomorrow! Jo, Michele, Karen, Barb, Christine, Rachael, Megan and Kalina - Diamondsready to sparkle!...and get a little muddy! We begin tomorrow with a spectacular flight along over the mountains to the remote airstrip at Melaleuca in the World Heritagelisted Southwest National Park. We'll set camp and prepare for our journey ahead. We are carrying a full pack and camping along the unspoiled wilderness of A...ustralia’s southernmost shores. For 9 days and 85 kilometres, we'll move through empty beaches to towering rainforests and the alpine heights of the Ironbound Range, it will be a wild experience, far from the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives. See you when we get back.

08.01.2022 Why is it called the 6 Foot Track? Diamonds have set a goal to hike and camp the 45km Six Foot Track from Jenolan Caves to Katoomba in March 2021. 3 days hiking and 2-nights camping. In the late 1800s this track was established to allow easy access through the area and the "Six Foot" represents the width of the track that was built to allow horses and coaches to travel it.... Did you know that there is an annual Six Foot Track Marathon Event that began in 1984 with just 7 runners? Now it is a popular event amongst trail runners and the fastest female does the entire length in under 4 hours. Winding through state forests and Blue Mountains National Park, this historic track takes in heritage sites, heath, woodlands, and rainforest. Crossing a unique swing bridge is an exhilarating experience and the cascading waterfalls, wild rivers and remote campsites are all part of the fun.

07.01.2022 NOT TRUE!!!! The point is... ...there never is a perfect time or a special sign that tells you to go for it. If there were, decisions would be easy.

A team of Diamonds completed their final team training session last weekend, in preparation for one of Tassie's toughest and most remote treks - the 9 Day Tasmanian South Coast Track! Deep in the South-West wilderness with nothing between them and Antarctica! Yes, there will be water and possibly lots of it so we practised water-proofing our 17kg packs, managing wet boots and crossing deep creeks safely.... What an adventure awaits! Good luck to the team and stay tuned for the news of their adventure commencing Dec 5th. . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health

04.01.2022 Sometimes injuries do happen!! Would you know what to do? Our Diamond coaches are up-to-date and fully trained in Remote and Wilderness First Aid and always carry a full emergency kit to deal with situations that may arise. A sprained ankle is the most common injury while hiking - remember to always watch your step, wear supportive shoes and never take your eye off the trail. If you need to take a photo, eat or talk to someone behind you, STOP!... Now is the time for snakes on the trails so pack your compression bandage and know how to use it in case of a bite. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #firstaid #injury #remote #hiking #health #fitness #wilderness #bandage #snakebite

02.01.2022 Training and hiking at night is something special! BUT getting the right head torch is essential. We've tried and tested many features and here's what we know. look for head torch designed for trail running or cycling not just camping - it needs to be powerful, robust and rain resistant... 200 lumens minimum (power rating) batteries go flat so always carry spares re-chargeable head torches will save you heaps (plug into your USB port) consider the "burn time" if you are planning on long treks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health #nighthiking See more

02.01.2022 DO YOU KNOW how long the Larapinta Desert Walking Trail is? We love BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goals) here at Diamonds in the Rough Adventures and right now, we have a team of 8 hardcore Diamonds preparing to be able to complete the full end to end challenge in May 2021! They will be following the spine of the West MacDonnell range from Alice Springs, through Ormiston Gorge to the iconic Mt Sonder. ... THE ANSWER The entire length of the famous Red Centre Larapinta Trail is 223km. It will take 14 days of challenging desert trekking, travelling on remote ridges, through canyons and sleeping under a sea of stars in swags. Now that's gotta inspire you to find a BHAG for 2021. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #community #womentreking #adventure #strongwomen #hikingwomen #ditradventures #fitness #womenshealth #inspiration #motivation #exercise #adventurouswomen #nature #wilderness #mountains #training #womensfitness #outdoorfitness #womensfitness #trektraining #health #larapinta #deserthiking #trails #bhag
