It's not the same as a backpack full of 50# of Sand. The hunting gods KNOW if you are just mailing it in...

Just crack a beer and order a pizza. The hard work for the day is done. You should be able to carry the whole elk out on your back in 1 trip now come fall.

Yeah what he said you can't train for such torture. Just do it and relax when it's done.

Did you post a video of it on social media? If not, do it again... doesn’t count unless it’s posted

Being in good physical shape and really mentally tough is more important than being a physical freak in my experience. Being in your best shape never hurts though.

Ha...I couldn't resist though a close friend who is a doctor (PT but still a doctor) and yoga instructor says the pelvic floor muscle workout is pretty dang important for man stuff. I mean not everything is for being Elk Tough or whatever they call it
