February 22, 2020 — Leave a comment

WOW! It’s been sooo long since I last wrote on huntingfit.com. I’ll no longer make excuses and tell you I’ve just been busy and I plan to fire up weekly articles again. Hunting Fit is not dead but I have redirected some of my efforts. As you know there is a finite amount of time in each day and I’ve focused on a few other things (for now) and Hunting Fit had to take a back seat. In my defense there is still a ton of content on the site to help keep you working towards your goals. Continue Reading…

Look for Unique Training Opportunities

OK, So Maybe You’re Not Looking For Something This Unique…(photo courtesy of the artofmanliness.com)

While it’s great to get into a routine with your workouts sometimes it’s good to mix it up a little to keep your body guessing on what muscles it will have to use next and also keep your brain interested as well. I can only lift sandbags for so long in my basement before I just want to do something different. Continue Reading…

I Forgot What I was Missing

Sunrises From the Stand Are Joy’s that Only a Hunter Knows.

Hunting season started a little later for me this year than in the past but as with anything worth doing you’ve got to make a little time to get it done. I did just that a couple Sundays ago and spent some time in the woods and realized how much I love the hunting experience. Continue Reading…

Don’t Forget About the Camaraderie

September 17, 2018 — Leave a comment

Sharing Camp with Good Friends Shouldn’t Be Overlooked When Assessing the Success of Your Hunt.

For over 20 years I was a pretty solitary hunter. I’d occasionally venture out with a friend every now and then but primarily it was just me. As you enter your hunting seasons this Fall I hope you all come home with meat for the freezer but don’t forget about one of the other great benefits of hunting. Continue Reading…

Gear Review: Sitka Ascent Series in Subalpine

September 3, 2018 — Leave a comment

The Ascent Series in Subalpine Works Great for a Variety of Destinations and Game. Photo Taken in Michigan.

It’s hot in Texas…but I didn’t let that stop me from hunting this summer. Being blessed to have year round opportunities to chase game I didn’t want to miss any chances I might get. With that, I needed something that I could wear to keep me concealed but also not cause me to melt into a puddle of sweaty mess. Talking with a Sitka representative he recommended giving the Ascent Series a shot. Continue Reading…

Gear Review: Maven C.1 10×42 Binoculars

July 23, 2018 — Leave a comment

The C.1 is the Latest Offering from Maven.

If you’re going to hunt out West then you’d best plan on facing the fact that you need to have good set of binoculars. I’m sure there on plenty of arguments for and against packing in a spotting scope but I can’t think of anytime I’ve heard someone question the need for binos. When offered a chance to check out the latest optical offering from the team at Maven I didn’t want to pass it up. Continue Reading…

This May Be the Literal Definition of a Farmer’s Carry but It Will Benefit Your Hunting Fitness as Well (photo courtesy of beastlifestyle.com).

So you’ve been following or maybe this is your first trip to HuntingFit.com but you’re intimidated by the thought of starting a workout program. I’ve got a relatively simple exercise you can do at home or the gym to set your fitness goals in motion. Couple the Farmer’s Carry with some additional cardio work (walking, hiking, running, etc) and you’ll be amazed at how much more you can tackle this fall.

Don’t Wish Away Spring and Summer Waiting For Deer/Elk Season

April 4, 2018 — Leave a comment

What a Beautiful Scene. With a Little Effort it Could be You.

As I scroll through my social media feeds I am seeing a ton of post’s from individuals who are already wishing their deer or elk season was upon them. While big game seasons in the fall are my favorite there are way too many opportunities out there the other 9-10 months of the year to be wishing them away. If you’re not capitalizing on all the year round adventures we’ve been blessed with then you should reconsider your strategy.
