Last weekend, I competed at the TrainToHunt event in Northern Idaho.

 

And on the day this podcast is released, I'm competing at a second TrainToHunt event in Southern Idaho.

 

If you have absolutely no idea what a TrainToHunt event is, then I'd highly recommend you listen in to my previous TrainToHunt podcast with Kenton Clairmont. In it, Kenton and I discuss why bowhunting is probably the most appropriate example of ancestral athleticism and functional fitness that exists, and why I'm personally getting more and more into the bowhunting scene.

 

I also talk quite a bit about hunting fitness in the episode "How To Build Primal Fitness And Endurance By Hunting: An Interview With A Bowhunting Triathlete."

 

Today, I interview Will Bradley, fellow podcaster, TrainToHunt director and host of the Natural Born Hunter podcast.

 

In this episode, you'll discover:

 

-How a construction worker from upstate New York got into bowhunting...

 

-Why Will thinks sitting in a tree stand for your hunting still requires a fit body...

 

-Whether this whole TrainToHunt and hunting fitness thing is a passing fad...

 

-What Will's workouts look like, and what he eats...

 

-The biggest mistakes people make when getting ready for something like TrainToHunt...

 

-The best way to estimate your yardage when shooting...

 

-How to fill a pack  the right way... 

 

-And much more!
