39: The Role of Fitness in Survival

We often come across content about bug out bags and people setting off to adventure around the world, but something which isn't always talked about alongside the flat lays...is fitness. The ability to carry your gear comfortably, stay upright when walking over difficult terrain, pull out an extra 30% or more of effort when required, and heal quickly from injury is all related to fitness. We talk about diet, strength and aerobic training and how these are beneficial to all of your activities.Links- Our Patreon- Connect with Richard and Modern Outdoor Survival- Modern Outdoor Survival on Instagram- Richard on Instagram and Twitter- Original Outdoors on Instagram, Twitter and Youtube- Amy on Instagram and Twitter- Find out more about The Academy- Join our Discord Community
