High Chirp, Low Chirp, Downscan…What is the difference and when should you use each setting?  Capt.

We are one week away from Memorial Day.  For many, that means that a big workout or race is coming up to honor those who have served and sacrificed.  As we get ready for any event that we have been training for, it is important to scale back our activity so that we can rest, recover, and show up at our best.  How do we do that?  Lay off completely?  Back off 20%?  Today, I go over protocols that have worked for me over the years to show up on race day uninjured and ready to perform at my best.

Memorial Day is an opportunity to pay our respects to those who have served and sacrificed.  Many choose to do a tough workout on this day and the most iconic is the Murph Workout which honors Lt Michael Murphy.  The Murph Workout is: Run 1 mile, 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 squats, Run 1 mile.  To do it as prescribed, wear a 20 lb vest.  As we approach Memorial Day, I wanted to visit this workout and offer some suggestions to scale down for those who are not ready for this volume or scale up for those who want a real challenge.  We also go over the reason that Lt Michael Murphy was awarded the Medal of Honor as well as the story of Operation Redwing.

A viewer asked what exercise I would pick for overall conditioning for outdoor activities if I could only pick one.  Thankfully I don’t have to pick only one because I don’t believe that one exercise is perfect for every situation.  However, I can pretend for today’s show.  While I don’t think that one exercise is perfect, I think that the Kettlebell Swing is about as close to perfect as I have found.

Tom Rowland of Saltwater Experience asks Capt Scott Walker of Into the Blue about using Mapping chips. Scott uses C-Map Reveal with his Simrad NSS Evo 3 16" unit. Scott installs the chip, selects the map, and shows how he would use the chip to find inshore spots like coral heads or lobster spots. Tom asks about using the C-Map Reveal chip to find swordfish spots in deep water. Scott explains and shows, step by step, how to get high-resolution bathymetric imagery displayed, and what he looks for in a productive swordfish spot. He shows how to find spots in 1500-1800 feet that would be productive swordfish areas. He goes over the menu and shows how to turn on and off features, use tracks, and switch between high-resolution bathymetric charts to standard charts. Watch the full video on YouTube HERE.

Combine the Wim Hof 40 day Quarantine Challenge with 100 days of Burpees and you have our April/May challenge. We are 34 days in. How are you doing? Want to join? Come in...it’s not too late.  If you need further instructions please CLICK HERE for full description or read below: We will do the 100 day Burpee challenge. This one is easy to explain. On April 1, drop and do 1 burpee. On April 2nd, do 2 burpees. Continue adding a burpee a day for 100 days. We will also join in on the Wim Hof 40 Day Quarantine Challenge. I have written about Wim Hof quite a bit here and have been doing the daily breathing for about 5 years. Notably, I have not been sick in any way since starting this protocol. Previous to starting, I had the flu every year for 3 years prior. I would also get occasional colds. Additionally, performance has improved, most notably in my burpees. I was not able to do 100 burpees in a row despite trying for many years. After about a month of daily breathing, I did 100 consecutive burpees and set an

Tell someone that fishing is a physical sport and you may get some funny looks.  Fishing on the flats of the Florida Keys is quite a bit different than sitting under a shade tree with a bobber, worms, and a 6 pack.  Poling a skiff is hard work.  Often guides pole into the wind for hours at a time with 2 heavy dudes on the bow.  Guys do this 100 days in a row or more during the season.  It is like being a professional athlete.  You are requiring performance out of your body to make a living…regardless of the sea conditions, wind speed, or weight of the boat.  The guide’s job is to push the boat and find fish.   Novice polers are overwhelmed by the strength and endurance requirements and fatigue midi day.  Veterans have different problems.  The repetitive movement of poling for years can lead to painful overuse injuries.   I received a question about this asking me to do an entire episode on developing strength for poling so today we will go over the ways that strength can be developed and also go over ways to

Troy Casey is also known as Certified Health Nut.  He was once a Versace Model who became more and more interested in how his body was working mostly for the sake of looking his best for his job.  After some exposure to black mold, he has gone on a mission to reclaim his health using any means necessary.  He’s worked with indigenous tribes in the Amazon as a medicine hunter, studied the ancient Vipassana Meditation technique Ashtanga Yoga, and worked closely with Paul Chek at the world-famous C.H.E.K. Institute.    Through these methods of study as well as through other methods such as breathing techniques like Wim Hof Method, Ayahuasca, Qi Gong, barefoot walking, Ice baths and…yes…drinking his own urine, Troy has transformed his health to be the best of his life at the age of 54 years old. Troy used ayahuasca to help him to rekindle his relationship with his wife and also to see visions of his future.  He has a grand vision for helping to creating a world with clean air, water, soil, and equitable systems fo

Kyle Gemas is a world-traveling angler and adventurer.  He has traveled and fished in some amazing places and has been a guest on the podcast before to recap his trip to the Seychelles.  You can find that episode here. Recently, Kyle targeted the Arapaima on a fly rod.  Arapaima routinely reaches lengths of more than six feet and in some exceptional cases more than eight feet. The maximum recorded weight for the species is 440 pounds while the longest recorded length was slightly over 15 feet. They live in the remote jungles of South America.  Kyle traveled to Guyana and recaps travel, adventure, techniques, and future plans.

Lao Tzu said, “Correct the mind and the rest of your life will fall into place”.   This applies to our April Challenge fairly well.  The April Challenge is:  The 100 Day Burpee Challenge.  Add 1 burpee a day for 100 days. We are pairing this challenge with the Wim Hof 40 Day Quarantine Challenge.  Find the complete description here. Each of these challenges helps us to work on discipline as well as giving us the opportunity to clear the mind through moving meditation and breathing exercises.  By calming the mind, we can be clear-headed and rational.  Devoting time to this practice every day will help to correct the mind and if Lao Tzu is correct, the rest of our lives will fall into place. This week we have: Tuesday - How2Tuesday with Scott Walker Tuesday 12 Noon on @saltwater_experience I will do a live podcast with Cameron Kirkconnell, the best spearfisherman in the world Wednesday - Kyle Gemas - Pursuit of the largest freshwater fish in the world…on fly Thursday - Troy Casey - Certified Health Nut and Ripp
