A Personal Trainer's Guide to Prepper Fitness and Surviving the Apocalypse

Prepper Fitness & Surviving the Apocalypse

My little brother got into this prepping thing a few years ago where he would prepare for the end of the world by stocking piling food, water, MREs and other supplies.  I think that kind of thing makes sense, but I'm not 100% sure. 

I said to Kevin, "so you're preparing for the end of the world?" 

Kevin from Prepper Base​ said:  " I'm not prepping for the end of the world, but for things that can disrupt our modern way of life. It's always a good idea to have stockpiles of essential food, prepare a bug out bag, and know some basic survival skills. You never know what might happen! Even something as simple as a power outage or a serious weather event can shut things down for a while. "

As a personal trainer, I think about a few things when it comes to this...  What about exercise?  Are you in good enough shape to actually deal with an apocalyptic event?  

I think that having a few months of MREs is helpful to have on hand in case there's an EMP, which is probably the most likely to occur as far as apocalyptic events go.  Either an EMP or a "Don't Look Up" (netflix movie) is probably the most likely cause any of national emergency situation.  

This topic is a little bit off topic for a health & fitness blog so I wrote a guide on his website called Physical Fitness for Preppers.  Let me know how you like it!
