Join Phillip Velayo and Todd of Pac Mule Training for a deep dive into the fitness side of hunting and shooting, including everything most guys overlook until the mountain humbles them. Todd walks through his journey from human performance coaching into building specialized training programs for hunters and shooters, and breaks down why movement efficiency, rucking, and base testing matter more than raw strength. He gets into how to structure a 3 to 4 month training plan, how to track progress, how to dial in gear selection and load distribution for rucking, and how physical readiness ties directly into mental confidence and decision making in the field. Whether you're prepping for an NRL Hunter event, gearing up for a backcountry season, or just tired of being the limiting factor on your own hunts, this one is worth the full sit.
