p.s. I was thinking about sharing some of the stretching & mobility workouts that helped me the most... Will let you know when and where that happens, but I was thinking about posting it either on Patreon or Discord... And yeah, since you liked the idea, I will be creating a discord server. Will announce it with the next video :) Much love, Andraž
yes brother pls share i have back problems too and wearing a heavy pack strains it a lot. I think a discord will be good to share training and stretches and such :D. Thanks for making such a nice community!
@@andrazegart ofcc but it's nothing serious for me and i rarely have pain now. I got a brace for my scoliosis when i was young so it didnt get to the point of needing surgery. see u on discord!!
Hi Andraz! I’m so glad your rehab has been so successful. You’re simply a legend and thank you for sharing your amazing adventures and showing us the beautiful mountains 🙂❤️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I’m sorry I criticized you repeatedly on that one video where you were cooking in your tent. It was the first video I saw. After watching more videos I realized you are very experienced and I REALLY enjoy watching your videos. Please keep making them. You’re a VERY lucky guy!🇨🇦👍
Loved this one, this part of Triglav mountains is gorgeous! Was laughing how you were casually talking while crossing that impressive ridge like it was just another basic stroll 😂
I am glad I recently discovered your channel. You are down to earth, informative, bold, funny, articulate and wise for your young age. Where did you get such good English? No real need for subtitles but they are helpful anyway. Could you show us sometime how you attach your camera to your helmet and to your forearm or wrist? It allows for excellent angles. I'm also impressed how you talk about various things while you are negotiating difficult passages. You have a lot of guts, Andraz, and you inspire me to get out there and do more.
Thank you so much for this kind and wholesome message 🙏. Yeah, I did a poll one time (if I should keep doing the subtitles), and most of my subscribers chose to keep it 😅 I feel like it helps to follow along with the video, especially if there’s a bit of wind, and makes things hard to understand :) But I really appreciate it! I’ve worked hard to improve my english the past few years, so it means a lot! Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll make sure to show my setup most likely in my next video! Kind regards my friend 🙌
Andraž casually chatting about health issues while climbing a chimney 😂. Absolutely great, I hope you can keep up posting such videos for a loooong time ❤
Your video made my day once again. Crazy how your channel does not have more followers. I am watching your videos for quite a while now and I am getting into climbing mountains myself right now, partly because of your videos. You really motivate me to go in the mountains every weekend. Thank you for inspiring me, really enjoy it! Keep making such cool videos!! Also much energy for your rehab.
I understand your shoe woes perfectly. I've never found a pair of shoes that didn't give me blisters on my heels. I always have to cut circle pads of duct tape to put on my heels before going for a long hike.
I'm glad to see you really recovered of your back problem. Beautiful places, as usual although too much dirty ground and dangerous as to go alone. Anyway, a magnificient job.
20:23 'the ice bath pumps blood all over your body'. Not exactly. Blood is withdrawn from your extremities and your surface and is concentrated in your core. There are many possible negative side effects. Be sure to do this only on the advice of your doctor.

@@andrazegart oh so nice to hear! I have back problems myself and that sparked my interest to study occupational therapy and personal training to help other people deal with their back problems and be able to do sports, go on adventures,... I now do 1 on 1 remote coaching for that! So lovely to see you being so open about it!
Hi Andraz, my name is Pekka, I live in Sweden, I have a question. I like your blog, do you have time to answer it. Where is the best parking to get up on Triglav. Been to Slovenia once planning to come to JUni next year. Hope you continue with your nice blog :)
@@andrazegart when I get back from this trip I’ll join you! Currently I don’t always have internet, Im cycling to the Meteoras because I like climbing runout/sandbagged routes In the hottest weeks of the year and my girlfriend likes to ride a bike for 2500km in 38c heat. 😂
Andraz kryptonite would be a brushy windy chimney full of spiders on a serious note, I have been trying to go offtrail alone in my mountains, but the reason i don’t is because of the wildlife. i have bears, mountain lions, and moose right by me. my question is, what dangerous wildlife do you have in your mountains and how do you deal with them?
Hahahaha don’t give me nightmares 🤣 Well here in Slovenia we only have bears and wolves, but both are “cowards” and usually stay away from people. So far I haven’t had any encounters (knock on wood)… I hope it stays that way. I totally feel you tho. I would be scared shitless if I saw a mountain lion. That sounds scarier than a bear to me haha. Maybe you should invest in some bear spray, or the little bear firecrackers gun (I’m not sure what it’s called), but it’s basically kind of like a flare gun.
Thank you, much appreciated! I just recently switched from Scarpa gecko to La sportiva tx4 evo. Would recommend both, but if you’ve got wide feet then la sportivas would be your cup of tea :)
@@andrazegart definitely have a more narrow foot, I've heard great things about the la Sportiva tx guide for narrower feet, but I will check out the geckos too. Cheers!
Thank you for the video! I do not see this activity in Strava :C. About the shoes- those are TX4 EVO I guess, are they not too soft for actual climbing?
Thank you brother! Yeah, I don’t track my activities that often haha 😅 Correct! I feel like my previous ones (scarpa gecko) were a bit more precise and lightweight, but I personally prefer the La sportivas because of the wide toe box. One of the best shoes for any kind of scrambling in my opinion :)
@@andrazegart Slovenian alps are very high on my list of places to visit. They seem so much more chill than the other ranges with gondolas and cafes. Cheers! 🏔️🗻⛰️
Hey, Andraz!! Credit to Slovenia here! President Biden today: "This deal would not have been made possible without our allies. Germany, Poland, Slovenia, Norway, and Turkey, they all stepped up and they stood with us. They stood with us, and they made bold and brave decisions, released prisoners being held in their countries who were justifiably being held and provided logistical support to get the Americans home. So, for anyone who questions whether allies matter, they do. They matter," he said."
@@andrazegartnice video, great producition. Man I saw that you wear scarpa gecko so i bought it, best shoes ever, but when i finish with them, I will definitely try la sportiva. Thx man
@@duleswim thank you very much! Yeah, the geckos rock! As close to a climbing shoe as it gets. The precision and lightness on those is unmatched. But for my wide feet la sportivas are a bit more comfortable fit :)
Oj Andraž lepo te je spet videt nazaj na terenu 😂.Mam samo eno uprašanje vem da si delu izpit al ga še no za alpinista pa me zanima čeprov je to delo že gorskih vodnikov če si prpavlen narest kakšno manjše vodenje na grosglockner glede na to da si bil že ene parkrat gor čeprov vem da so gorski vodniki zato ampak so zelo dragi em no če si kej zainterisiran napiš kej če pa menš da ni odgovorno pa tudi ok ❤

had totaly same experience with the health care in slovenia the fisiotherapy was so bad that i could have slept there for 1h and nothink would change the outcome ... after you get a private fisiotherapist its like day and night difference :D would advice anyone that can afford private healthcare to look into it .
Saddly the state of our public health system at the moment. You have to contribute and in the end if you want to get anything fixed, still spend the money for private clinics. 🤬
