Hunter Fitness Preparation

Are you training for hunting season? The sooner you start, the easier hunting season will be on you and the more you will be able to enjoy hunting in elk country.

Link to Hunting Fitness page.

Do plenty of walking and hiking, of course. Preferably in similar terrain as you will be hunting in and with a hunting pack on. Add some strength to help prepare you for hauling game and gear. Consider P90X Extreme Home Fitness, if you want to get serious about strength training. I'm just a little sore right now, proof that it's doing me some good! I added that this year to my marathon training regimen. (My Memorial Day marathon is coming up soon!)

I'm looking forward to abusing my body this fall on elk country slopes and hauling home some nutritious and delicious elk meat, so I can try some of the submitted recipes!

As always, feel free to write to us by clicking here.
