[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1448253, member: 41338"] Reminds me of Hershel Walker's pushup routine of having his girlfriend sit on his back while he did pushups. Guys who train for big events like marathons and such... they don't go in whole hog. They slowly train up and then train back before the event. What they don't do is get injured, get bored, get interrupted or get off track. It's real basic. It's simple enough that they know they can do it under almost any circumstances they're liable to encounter. They get the work in and don't leave the fight in the gym. If they need a kick in the event, they've got it and then some because they didn't over spend themselves training. Do a thing consistently, with appropriate degrees of engagement. Avoid injury. Injury is a double detractor. It takes you out and it demoralizes you. People come back to soon and only serve to screw themselves worse than before because they are deluded into thinking effort is directly related to results. Geeze... I've seen adult men who think the gym is where you train for hunting. They even have the hernia belt on for squats for getting into hunting shape. Dude... your sneaking around the hills, looking for something elusive and if you find and shoot it, you got'a carry it out on your back and get it on ice before it spoils. Hey son... it isn't fake rocket science. It isn't even science. It's just hick science. Get in fairly good shape, as in you can walk a dang good deal more than most with a load on your back. Discard the love of gadgets and instead rely on your senses. Pray to God for your safety. You are, after all, out there alone, unless you need a wet nurse. Then get 'er done. You've been given everything you need to "get 'er done". Success and unsuccess... forget the results. If you tried the right way and didn't score, then your just another hunter that didn't blow his balls out with a hernia. God gives you the food on your table. Don't get all caught up in scores.
