3 fitness tips for hunting success

Physically fit, mentally strong

PHYSICALLY FIT, MENTALLY STRONG HUNTING

Physical fitness comes with countless advantages, especially when hunting in the mountains. Being fit can prevent an early end of the hunting adventure or injuries. We asked three hunters how they stay fit for a successful hunt.

When hunting my favorite animal, the reindeer, my black Norwegian Elkhound Rocky is always by my side. In the mountains, reindeer are nomadic creatures that are hard to spot and disappear just as fast, like ghosts. The fact that you have to work so hard to see them is what I love most about reindeer hunting. In preparation for the hunt, Rocky and I use our Alpine garden as a playground. Sunsets, climbing on boulders and cliffs, exploring new places – this is when I feel a sense of peace combined with an adrenaline rush. I do endurance training but save my joints by avoiding running on asphalt. Instead, I run on terrain that is similar to that of the hunting ground. I like to train light, so I take the absolute minimum with me. I also cross-country ski and practice a Norwegian shooting discipline called jaktfelt. I enter competitions for fun in both these disciplines.

My training goal? I’d like to go back to Canada one day and join a mountain goat hunt. The last time I was there we were stopped by extreme weather conditions. It snowed heavily during the hunt, so we had to stay in the tent for three days before coming back down. We can’t control the weather – but that’s fine too! - @fjellgeit_

I grew up near the Rocky Mountains in Canada and have spent most of my life in the mountains. When I was 12 years old, my father introduced me to bighorn sheep hunting, and I have been addicted to it ever since. As my passion for mountain hunting has grown over the years, so has my personal fitness level. My work as a chiropractor strengthens my upper body and torso. I’m familiar with a variety of exercises for the lower limbs and teach them in the gym, but for me as a hunter I find it more effective to train outdoors. Hiking, walking the dog, and just spending time in my hunting boots on rough terrain – this is enough to build mobility in my feet and ankles and prevent injuries. When I train indoors, I concentrate on functional exercises involving the gluteal muscles. This large muscle group is essential for pelvic stability, climbing, and the legs in general. Despite my love of the mountains, my name reflects my dream hunt: Cape buffalo. - @sheepgirlsav

Hunting is a family tradition and I’m proud to pass it on to my five-year-old twins. I also grew up with hunting – my father took me hunting in Belgium and around the world. We became obsessed with mountain hunting and the search for ibex took us to incredible places like Spain and Mongolia. My hunting style has evolved over the years, and today I love bow hunting. When preparing to go on a Dall sheep hunt in Alaska, I lost some weight with the help of a nutritionist. I worked on my legs and general fitness by running three to four times a week, gradually increasing the length of the run, my speed, and the weight of my backpack. Apart from running, my wife and I also followed a TV fitness program, which gave us fast results. I realized how much the training had paid off when I strapped a ram to my backpack. I couldn’t have done this without the training. My next target is a mountain goat hunt on Kodiak Island. - @stefaan_rotthier
