On this episode we discuss:

( 2:35 ): Episode starts around the campfire and Brittney asks, “I always love seeing what someone brings with them around the campfire. I can’t be empty-handed whether it’s snacks or a drink. What can we normally find you sipping on or snacking on?”

( 6:45 ): Brittney asks Kenton, “How did you get introduced to the outdoors?”

( 8:46 ): Brittney, “Do you remember your first vivid memory of hunting or fishing with your Dad?”

( 21:00 ): Kenton shares his story about getting diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis.

( 26:31 ): Brittney and Kenton discuss how his diagnosis gave him a lot of gratitude for his body, what it can do and help others. While it also helped him become a better coach and business owner with his new outlook and sympathy he had for others on their journey.

( 34:41 ): Brittney asks, “You’ve now opened a CrossFit gym with your friend and been having success with your RA medication, and you why with helping your clients. Is this how Train to Hunt started? Did all of this factor together on it starting?”

( 40:42 ): Britt shares how she first came across the Train to Hunt Challenges when they came through Utah.

( 49:00 ): Britt asks, “Let’s say someone is listening and wants to join your challenges but is a beginner or kind of off of their groove. Where does someone start training to hunt? What tips do you have?”

( 56:09 ): Kenton from Train to Hunt shares his go-to workout for getting it in no matter what that only takes 5-minutes:

• 1 minute of push-ups
• 1 minute of sit-ups
• 1 minute of squats
• 1 minute of lunges
• Going as hard as you can with no rest in between and have your workout done in a matter of 5-minutes.

“If something happens and your brain tells you, Oh man that sucks I can’t work out today. I want you to immediately think about this: if it means giving up a million dollars? Could I make it happen? — If the answer is yes. Then you can make it happen! It’s possible.”
