    My newest body related issue

    Go see a physical therapist. I had tight quads and hip flexors to the point it was giving me unbearable “back pain”. I got it worked out and started working on my deficiencies to prevent it from happening again. Rolling muscles and tendons, stretching before and after working out, yoga moves...

    Garmin Smartwatches vs Apple

    Love my Garmin Fenix Sapphire. I use it with the Garmin connect app constantly. I generally have no problems interactions between the watch and iPhone. I will note you will get your activity and Health alerts through Garmin app, not your apple apps. The other thing is durability. I’ve put my...

    Cramping…

    I use at least 2 Nuun tablets in water per day. Another thing I’ve found useful is to pack a little muscle rolling ball (baseball size but solid) and roll muscles every night. It helps with the circulation and seems to prevent cramping.

    Stone Glacier Dehavilland Pants vs First lite Corrugate Foundry

    This is an old thread, but figured I would add in my opinion since I’ve had both. I’ve worn the FL currogates for a couple years since they first came out. Love them. Love the suspenders. The only thing I notice is that the pants just start hanging off of me by the end of a hunt and they are a...

    How often does everyone upgrade their packs?

    EXO is what I got first and haven’t had to replace. I love it. My buddy also has a Stone Glacier and loves it.

    Feelings during The Hunt

    One of the things I try to do before my kids ever go hunting with me is to talk about the animal each meat comes from. My kids know we eat elk and they don’t like “cow”. I’ve showed them where the cuts of different meats come from animals and try to show them the “why”. I try to talk about how...

    SG De Haviland vs Jetstream

    I got the new one in today. It says not until February but it shipped as soon as I ordered. Fits much better than the original. I tried both L and XL in the old and couldn’t find the right fit. Large in new version fits me great and isn’t super tight on the hips anymore.

    MNTTOUGH Subscription Only Now?

    That sounds good, thanks for commenting. I’ve been somewhat involved in the app development situation before and it’s expensive to build and run apps on all the different platforms and have a support team there to fix glitches every time the platforms update and make changes. I think they...

    MNTTOUGH Subscription Only Now?

    Yes you can see the workouts on the app, you just can’t comment or post anything. So you get the programs, but i guess not the “support” and access to the MTNTOUGH community that was promised. Maybe I will contact them and make sure that it’s set up correctly.

    MNTTOUGH Subscription Only Now?

    I get it too, but it sucks that those of us that were early adopters aren’t going to get the same benefits from the app unless we subscribe. I have the post season strength, preseason, spring break, and 30-30 from over the past few years. I paid a good amount for those figuring I would have...

    Quitting Alcohol

    I’ve been sober for 17 years; I sobered up in college. Alcoholism runs in my family, killed my dad, and multiple men up the line. Let’s just say no male in the past 4 generations at least have made it out of their 50s. Hunting was an excuse for the men to get drunk every night at the cabin...

    Pants for those who don’t skip leg day

    I also have formidable legs and have the same issue. As some have said, Prana Stretch Zion work for me, although I still upsize one size. The first lite pants have always fit me true to size though. The new currogate foundry seemed right when I ordered my waist size, but when you wear them I...

    Let The Workouts Begin!!!

    Yup, exactly. I’m always amazed by how dirty it is.

    Eat MTNTOUGH: ongoing review of their nutrition program!

    This is a great review. I tried this program as well, but I didn’t stick with the macro% recommended because that low % of carbs really had me hitting a wall. This program had me taking in quite a bit more calories than i was used to (as I was trying to lose weight, and my old wrestler brain...

    Let The Workouts Begin!!!

    I will wash mine before the season according to how Exo guys recommend washing it. And then after to get the blood and dirt out. It probably doesn’t make much of a difference to the game, but I don’t like to smell the sweat 😅

    Ground Elk fat %

    It’s obvious everyone feels strongly about how they process their meat, which is probably the most important thing I took from this thread. It makes sense, we should take pride in what and how we do it. I personally changed from beef fat to 10% bacon for burger, 20-30% pork back fat for...

    Let The Workouts Begin!!!

    I love reading this thread. It’s exactly what I need when trying to get myself motivated for my run today in a heat advisory down here in SC. Just gotta keep hydrating and listen to my body to stay safe. Then embrace the suck.

    Sharing waypoints with OnX

    I also have had this issue. I tried sending a ton of links to another hunter and none worked
