00:00:01 Speaker 1: Nothing worth having comes easy in this life, and since falling in love with hunting, I recognize that success in the field is no different from success in sport. Preparation is everything. In Pursuit is the latest show from the Meat Eater podcast network where we apply the lessons I've learned from two decades of training and ten gold medals at the cross of the games. We're stingy. I'm your host, Rich Frohning, inviting you to listen in on my conversations with fitness and hunting experts, industry leaders, coaches, athletes, and even some of my mentors as we highlight the connection between fitness and the back country. 00:00:41 Speaker 2: We have Monster Moosa mile up the ridge and they won't. They're like, I'm tired, I want to hike. I'm like, you've paid a lot of money for this. You can't dig deep. Mind stops way before your body does. 00:00:51 Speaker 1: Yeah right, I mean that's what you guys are doing that We need one more rep How are you going to get it? I'm a passionate hunter, but far from a professional one, and I've got a lot to learn. These conversations bridge the gap between my passion for spreading fitness and my thirst for knowledge of the outdoors. Experiences taught me that pushing our bodies to new limits in the gym uniquely prepares us for any challenges we may face in the real world, like the grind of heavy loads, steep mountain sides, dense forests, and icy rivers. We aim to grow alongside a new breed of hunter that's emerging, the ones who recognize that success in the wild demands more than skills with a rifle or a bow. The good news, I'm confident your chances of filling the freezer will increase if you follow our advice. The bad news, you might need to buy some new camo after you drop some fat and gain some muscle.
