"New year, new me" Its that time of the year when many people talk about goals or resolutions only to do just that, talk about it. How many times do you end having or are in a conversation where exercise, health or diet comes up? How many times has it come up only to not even attempt trying to change it. We all know that for anything to change we need to do the work. No magic pill or supplement just plain work... no more talking...

Everyone has a mountain to climb both literally and figuratively. I sit down with my friend TJ Shawver and we discuss the challenges that come with staying on the course to reach out fitness and health goals, and how to rebound when we fall off course. TJ and I talk about training for western hunts from his location ( Wyoming) and mine ( Minnesota - the flatland). Definitely some similarities but different approaches to reaching the same goal, being our best for the hunt and or lives.

In this episode I sit down with Nic Edlund. He is a coach that helps high school trap shooter excel, a backcountry hunter and avid participant in cross fit. Above all he is a man of great Faith. We talk about learning the hard way to hunt the mountains. He shares how he started with cross fit and we talk about making the choice to get healthy. This means diet, exercise and rest. Sometimes these are the tough choices but will ultimately be good overall.

I wanted to answer a few questions/ comments I have got on a recent post on social media. I recently posted about returning to archery/ bowhunting after being injured a few times. It was a long process, two steps forward and then one or two back. I had to constantly reassess, trial different exercises, modify some. I had short term success and failure. I don't take "it can't be done" or "No, it won't work" very well. I really stuck with and trusted the process. This got a little winded but I wanted to emphasize how important it is to stick with work/ process and find a trainer that you can have good conversation with, one that will constantly analyze movement to help you reach your goals!

Do you need to be in shape to hunt waterfowl?

In shape/ fitness are certainly personal choices. My friend Brian Ellithorpe and I sit down to discuss the benefits of being in shape to hunt waterfowl. Some hunts are easy but many can be challenging to get to the remote areas the birds are in, with a lot of gear. We discuss situations where strength and conditioning are needed, trying to make better food choices ( a challenge for waterfowlers) Many mountain/ back country hunters train nearly all year round for one to two weeks in the mountain. Waterfowlers spend 3-5 months hunting. So, why shouldn't be in shape as well?

When people are asked if they would die for their family, they answer yes without any hesitation. However, when then asked if they would get healthy for their family, there is hesitation... My friend Seth and I sit down and talk about why started lifting/exercising, what it has evolved to and ultimately what is our "why" now. Join us for a conversation between two friends and as stated in Proverbs 27:17 "iron sharpens Iron..." is what comes out of this conversation.
