True, but if physical fitness is ones best defense against stress then one tends to apply it to exhaustion and after that there really is nothing left, intelligence and mental discipline is usually what people say saved them when there was nothing physical left...MPMalloy wrote:Being physically fit will help you deal with stress, which there will be an overabunadance of, during a disaster.

Exactly. That is why I am poking (hard) at myself because I have to be more careful about slacking off on any type of PT. It is now harder to ramp up and train quickly for any sort of endurance event. Hence I take my running shoes with me even on travel including out of country trips. If I want good results I have to be more strict about what I eat and how I train.woodsghost wrote: ↑Mon Jul 09, 2018 1:16 pmWell....if they can get it done, I won't look too close at their size. Results are what matter. If they are not getting results, it may be time to make some changes.

GoRuck looks like fun for a group to get involved in. What is your year long ratio of GoRuck sessions to "ordinary" sessions of long & short distance hikes with packs?HardLuck682 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 10, 2018 6:46 pmVery important. Some friends and I are training continuously for GORUCK events. Beyond training for the events, we’d be greatly prepared for having to beat feet with a bugout bag for miles and hours, if necessary. This is just the tip of our training, but any additional conditioning, both physical and mental will help better prepare you for an austere environment.
