Uphill and downhill hiking use different sets of muscles. Hiking uses your leg and bike muscles, due to the climbing that is involved.

Hiking is a complete lower body workout because it engages multiple muscle groups, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, and glutes, as you navigate varied terrains and inclines. The repetitive motion of climbing and descending strengthens these muscles while also improving balance and stability. Additionally, hiking often involves uneven surfaces, which activates stabilizer muscles, enhancing overall lower body strength and endurance. The cardiovascular benefits further contribute to overall fitness, making hiking an effective full lower body workout.
Your backpack should ideally weigh no more than 20 of your body weight for a comfortable and safe hiking experience.
To make a one minute speech on adventure, you would first have to choose an adventure. It could be any adventure, but a one minute speech is not very much time, so it would have to be something that would not take long to talk about. Some ideas are: canoeing on a fast moving river, hiking up a steep mountain, hunting morels in a woods, or even a shopping trip at a new store. You would want a short introduction, the body of the speech, and a short conclusion. Use descriptive words to make it interesting.
its a vitiam for your body!
The body parts used most while hiking depend on the terrain. If you hike on relatively flat land, the soles of your feet and the back of your legs are used the most. If you are hiking up hill, your front thigh's work the hardest. Walking downhill makes the back of your thighs, your glutes and your knees work the hardest.

At a body weight of 70 kg, I personally am happy with hiking with a bagpack of 12..15kg, which is roughly one sixth of my body weight. Generally one should aim to a bagpack weight as low as possible, although it is known, that experienced outdoor activists carry as much as 20..30 kg with them when being on high-alpine camping trips. This weight, however, makes hiking rather unpleasant and also needs you to have a pretty good carrying system. Generally, independent from body weight, a bagpack should be in the range of 10..15 kg for a one-week hike, where you carry your own tent, sleeping bag and supplies.
All of them!
