The Great Outdoors
The Great Outdoors. It is obviously the main theme to my life, writing, and experience. Without it I believe you lose touch with what it is to be human. Survival Fitness is all about being prepared for whatever comes your way. Many of the experiences we have outdoors remind us of just how cushy modern life has become, and furthermore the vast beauty of our planet.
There are many parts of the survival fitness program, and many can be done in a gym. Let me rephrase that, many parts of the Survival Fitness program should be done in the gym. However, unlike most programs, going outdoors is a key component to the Wild West Survival Fitness Academy and it’s purpose.
You have to spend time outdoors to be prepared for anything. Please don’t take this wrong, but without facing the extremes of temperature, uneven grade of the terrain, and the threat of the great outdoors – your just a pussy with big muscles or nice running shoes.
You might ask what kind of outdoor workouts we are recommending here.
Well, it is up to you. Some of the workouts posted here will require you go outside, but you can always mix it up. Hiking up a mountain, or down a canyon is great cardio and endurance work, and the view is much nicer than that fake Video Game touch screen on the treadmill at your gym.
I prefer to do heavy farmers carries, stone work, sand bags, and sleds outside in the dirt and the heat and the cold. A farmers carry in snow when the temperature is below freezing will do things to your body that you can’t simulate in the gym. Due to this the challenge and reward ratio is greater. However, just like in the gym, it is always important to make sure you keep safety first.
Remember, many of the exact science workouts you read in magazines and books, are for body builders. Survival Fitness is not for Body Builders! Survival Fitness is for people who want to look and feel strong and healthy, and have functional strength, endurance & stamina, flexibility, body composition, and agility.
The Wild West Survival Fitness Academy is not focused on building a perfect physique. It’s focus is giving you Well Rounded fitness that prepares you for anything and furthermore improves your quality of life.
Don’t be afraid to take your workouts outside into the fresh air. Be safe, but challenge yourself. Hike in the cold, run in the heat. After all, being able to push these limits of strength and endurance is exactly what Survival Fitness is all about! Be Safe, but Don’t Be A Weakling!
