Science-backed insights on rucking, hiking, and walking performance.
Professor Hiroshi Nose's interval walking protocol has 20+ years of clinical evidence. Here's what the research shows and how Hiko implements it.
Different surfaces change your energy expenditure by 10-100%. Here's what the science says about terrain coefficients and why Hiko tracks 9 terrain types.
The Copenhagen City Heart Study followed 7,308 healthy adults and found that walking pace — not walking time — is the strongest predictor of reduced mortality. Here's what this means for rucking and interval walking.
Meet the scientists who created IWT. Professor Hiroshi Nose and Professor Shizue Masuki at Shinshu University have spent 20+ years proving that interval walking improves health outcomes in adults of all ages.
