The goal of a wilderness athlete, put simply, is to run up a mountain, shoot an animal, and carry the animal back down. Well, that’s exactly what Train to Hunt is about. Understandably, over the past few years, there was some struggle involved in making TTH happen.Today, the great news is that Train to Hunt is back. Kevin and Chris Denham sat down and spoke with Kenton Clairmont, one of the founders of the event, about its return and the principles behind it.Kenton lives out in the wild, so you may hear some of the ambiance of that lifestyle in the background, but you're probably used to it. We hope you enjoy the conversation and start planning your trip to compete.https://traintohunt.com/Be sure to like and subscribe to Keep Up on the latest trends in the backcountry and in nutrition!Have a question or topic you'd like us to discuss?

Willi Schmidt is a longtime friend of WA and has been a great example of the type of hunter-athlete we all strive to be. He’s had a pretty crazy year, and we thought it would be great to have him on to tell us about it.Willi, in good health and with no pre-existing conditions, experienced a seemingly random stroke while working out - as he would on any normal day.Thankfully, his journey to full recovery seems to be moving at a good clip. We’d like to thank Willi for sharing this story and the insights he’s gained from it. We hope you find this one as fascinating as we do. Be sure to like and subscribe to Keep Up on the latest trends in the backcountry and in nutrition!Have a question or topic you'd like us to discuss?
