    Training for sheep hunt in 2021

    I just started the MTN Tough 45-70 program. I’m really glad I gave it a try. I think they did a Great job with the programming. It’s intense and they have excellent guidance on how to scale it based on your current strength and fitness levels.

    Training for sheep hunt in 2021

    I like your workout plan. I have a decent six pack. I’m around 11%. I’ll cut down to 8% before the hunt, but I have no desire to be single digits long term.

    Height and weight

    6’3 ~230 here with a useless 330 lb bench. I want to lose ~15lb 6 months before my 2021 sheep hunt. I’m working to build up my leg and core strength with squats, dead’s, planks and cycling.

    penny wise, pound foolish?

    I paid $100/ounce for a titanium action. I think it matters a lot if you can cut weight without sacrificing performance or function. If I can do that, I will. I think another valuable metric is performance increase per lb dropped. I've seen estimates in the range of .65% per pound. It adds...

    Military Surplus Rain Gear Experienes

    Physical preparation of my first sheep hunt.

    My first sheep hunt, cardio wasn't my issue. Hardest part was coming down the mountain with a sheep on my. back. If your back can take squats, I would recommend it. Build your core and your legs.

    Dall sheep hunting Brooks Range

    I missed the 10 lb rifle note. 6.5 CM is plenty for sheep, 300 WSM is a great cartridge too. If I had a 10lb sheep rifle, I would be looking to cut 2 to 2.5 pounds.
