Sure, you may be one of those “preppers” who are fully stocked with ammo, survival seed packs, 27 cases of Spam, and a case of Budweiser.

But there’s one area that unfortunately most people are completely unprepared for…

…and you need to correct it now!

Here’s the question you must answer…

Are You PHYSICALLY Prepared For A Crisis?

Look, when it comes to being physically prepared, you can either plan ahead of time, or PERISH!

I know it might seem harsh to you, but the facts are the facts.

When disaster strikes and you’re forced to bug-out, you just can’t wake up and say:

“It look’s like there’s a crisis going on, time to finally lose those extra 25 lbs I’ve been carrying around!”

That is pure insanity, and if you think you can snap your fingers and instantly get in shape, then you are in for a very rude awakening my friend.

Since you are a survival minded citizen like me, I thought that I would share with you 3 keys to a survival fitness plan to help you to successfully prepare for life’s toughest situations…

Survival Fitness Key #1:
Bodyweight Works Best!

You won’t have access to a gym when all hell breaks loose, so start training today with the best gym in the world, your own natural body weight.

If it’s good enough for Uncle Sam, it’s good enough for you, right?

Choose proven exercises like bodyweight squats, sit-ups, chin-ups, bridges, and push-ups as your exercises of choice for best results.

Survival Fitness Key #2:
Is Your Back Ready For The Trek?

Being prepared and having a bug out bag is one thing…

… but being able to actually CARRY your bug out bug is a whole different story!

When disaster strikes, you need your back to be strong enough to carry your survival items and your body to be mobile enough to carry you through any treacherous terrain you may face on your journey.

If you don’t train your structure, and your back gives out you will be in serious pain and unable to move!

Having excruciating back pain, and surviving a social chaos scenario is nothing to taken lightly.

I know this first hand from my heavy rucksack that I struggled to carry in the Army.

Being a light infantry soldier with the 10th Mountain Division, the vast amount of miles we had to carry really heavy rucks eventually took its toll on my back.

As I’ve aged, that damage always seemed to be there… when I got up in the morning… when I got out of a chair… when I moved the “wrong way”.

You probably know what I mean, don’t  you?

I went to several doctors and chiropractors and it never really helped long term.

Fortunately, I was able to get rid of my back pain completely when I realized that the real cause of my pain had to do with “trigger points” and “muscle imbalances”.

Here’s the program I followed to get rid of my back pain permanently and if you have any structural imbalances at all, I highly recommend getting their free book.

The solution was a lot easier to correct than I thought and I did it without going to any more doctors!

Survival Fitness Key #3:
Train How You’ll Bug Out

Those survival items may not look like they’re very heavy…but they’re likely waaaaay heavier than you think!

Take my old Army rucksack for example…

From the outside looking in, it would appear that it only held “35” lbs of field items, but when you actually took the time to add up ALL the extra food, clothing, radio communication equipment and ammunition it actually weighed a whopping “95” lbs!

Bug out items can be small but heavy and if you’ve never actually taken the time to physically carry your own bug out bag, then make today the day you get off your butt and give it a whirl.

After you’ve actually picked up your bag, block off one day during the week and make it a point to condition your body by performing progressively increasing treks while wearing it.

Start slow with a half-mile trek for the first week and work your way up to carrying your bug out bag for multiple miles at a time.

Be sure to take heed to my advice and make sure that you integrate today’s 3 Keys For Survival Fitness into your survival plan today.

If you do this, and disaster strikes, YOU WILL BE PREPARED!

But what about when society is no longer “civil”?

Urban Survival And The Danger Next Door

Consider a natural disaster.  While a power outage or a flood is no big deal for the first day or two, it can quickly dissolve into anarchy. This is where the “prepared” and the “unprepared” clash.

And with the breakdown of the infrastructure we depend upon to keep us safe (and fed) in shambles, the stress on our fellow citizens may force you to face your friends and make some hard decisions.

Neighbors Gone Wild

The fact is, all human beings are hard-wired to survive at all costs.  Thrust your typical “civilized” human being into the middle of civil unrest, especially when his (or her) family and loved ones are endangered, and he will quickly learn to be ruthless to protect those who depend on him for survival.

Bottom line, when the shelves of the local grocery store have been ravaged by rioters and your friends are hungry, things can turn ugly.  Two simple steps can help you stay out of trouble and avoid future skirmishes post-disaster…

Stock Up Now With “Crisis Items”

Look, first you have to protect your own, right?  During a disaster, certain items are going to leave the store shelves very quickly.  When they’re gone, so is the civil politeness you may normally see between friendly neighbors.

Know which food times sell out first in a disaster and stock up on these.  They will be your most immediate food source and help you wait out the disaster in relative comfort while others are hungrily waiting for government aid and clawing at each others’ throats.

This is the most definitive list of items that sell out during a crisis.

Can You Keep Your Disaster Plans A Secret?

Once you’re stocked up, keep the knowledge of your possession of these items to yourself.  “Love thy neighbor” is a great way to live your life, but hunger has a way of turning “Can I borrow a screwdriver” into “Give me your last box of Froot Loops NOW!”.

It’s not likely your neighbors are as prepared as you are and you have to take care of your family first.  Keeping your prepper plans a secret actually helps keep friends as “friends”.

While it’s nice to think that everyone will pull together as friendly neighbors during times of crisis, it’s advisable to live by the watchwords, “Hope for the best but plan for the worst”.

When it comes to protecting those you love, this old adage will serve you well.
