I have been doing stairs daily and because of this my ass feels swolen constantly, my thighs and calves are constantly sore also. I haven't even been doing this that often, only about 30-45 minutes daily. I am wondering how our ancestors even managed to walk, climb, or hike every single day constantly. Blows my fucking mind. How much stronger and capable were we hundreds of years ago? Its pretty pathetic only being able to go so far or push yourself so far and its realistically nowhere. This and not being able to just find my own food makes me feel sad bros. Why did it have to come to this. Do you guys think it'll be possible for me to reach a point where I can constantly keep hiking and climbing?

yes, just comes with time OP. You won't feel it initially but you'll slowly become stronger and before you know it that'll just be the new norm
