Somehow the message of “low-intensity effort is fueled by fat” has equated to “we don’t need carbs…”. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Here’s a few basics, but our most recent podcast dives into the nitty-gritty.

“Fat adapted” doesn’t mean carb free.

We did a special episode on how “fat as fuel” doesn’t mean anti-carb or fat ONLY. Send me a message and I’ll gladly send you a copy of the episode before it airs on other platforms.

I’ve used these three things more than ANY of piece of equipment to get ready for the mountains; including my sheep hunt, every Death Hike, and every hunting season.

Here’s what they are:
- - - - -
70lbs of sand (wrapped in tape to to prevent leaks). I use these in the final stages of building muscular endurance.
- - - - -
Bag full of pea gravel (heavier weight-for-space than sand). Mind-numbing my morning, but highly effective step ups and a variety of other single leg movements.
- - - - -
Modular sand bags split into 10-15lb intervals. I have many of these. I used them to titrate weight leading into a season and as dumbbells for single legs movements.
- - - - -
The best part? They can be used anywhere and have almost zero barrier to entry (cost, learning, space, etc.).

The worst? Now we’re completely out of excuses on why we can’t train…

I thought was either delirious or crazy when he sent me this message. However, it took 1 phone call to see he was dead serious and I sensed he had the drive to make it happen…and he has.

If I were going to write the basic rules of trail nutrition for myself on a notecard, here’s what I’d write.

We just finished a masterclass on this very topic, covering each one in greater detail. Comment your favorite trail snack below and we’ll be sure you get a copy of the recorded version.

Grant started knocking on doors to advertise his “trash job” to neighbors almost two years ago. We’ve tried to model and teach him managing his money in that time through saving, spending, and giving.

Photo 2: He knew EXACTLY what he wanted to save for and finally cashed in a couple of weeks ago (with a little help from mom and dad).
