Featured by Uncharted Supply Co: Build the Endurance to Get Yourself Out of Any Crisis
Folks do a lot of different things to prepare for a crisis. They stockpile food and water. They do the same with ammo. They compile the right gear, make escape and medial plans, and they do everyday things like never letting their vehicle get below a half-tank of gas. But they often ignore the most important piece of crisis planning: their body.
Your body is gear. When you neglect to care for important gear, it fails you when you need it most. There is no time that you need your body more than during a crisis situation.
The folks at Uncharted Supply Co. are all about preparedness. One of their four pillars of preparedness is Mental and Physical Fitness. So, Christian Schauf, the founder, and I chatted about how we might help folks better align with that pillar. I came up with a two-part article series on how to train for the endurance that makes a body a valuable piece of gear in a crisis.
If you want to make sure your body is an asset and not a liability in a crisis, read both parts and take action on the advice.

How to Develop Muscular Endurance for Mountain Hunting
Muscular endurance is the main dish we build our mountain training meal around. It’s what keeps our legs pumping on uphills; and without it, our legs turn to goo on downhills. Forget about carrying heavy loads or hunting back to back to back days without it. You will have no stamina; you will bonk; you will have a very bad time.

Many whitetail hunters spend the late winter and spring traversing the woods to learn about deer movement and find antler sheds. It's a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone — learning about the animals we love and love to hunt, and building fitness in the process.
