I have been getting emails and messages about people completing the 10,000 pushup challenge. If you have finished, send me your scoresheet showing that you completed all of the pushups and I will send you a certificate and sticker that I made for the challenge. Next months challenge is 3,000 pull-ups. If 3000 is too many for you right now, scale it down to a challenging number and start pulling. Whatever your challenge is, keep me in the loop and I will have something waiting for you at the end of the month to congratulate your dedication. Find some equipment to help you succeed this month below.

Continuing the series about acronyms in fitness we move on to another one. Last week we spoke about EMOM and now we are talking about "Death By." The format for "Death By" workouts is that you will do 1 rep for the first minute, then 2 for the second minute and so on... You continue in this pattern until you can't keep up with the clock. These type of workouts can be applied to any exercise and also offer a way for you to track performance. If you do "Death By" for pull ups and make it to 10 minutes, then the next time you do it you can see if you can beat that and go to 11. You can also apply it to pushups or other easier exercises and do 3 per minute so it increases quicker (3, 6, 9...).

Hunter Bland was a college bass fisherman who has recently moved on to become a Bass Fishing Coach. We learned a little about Hunter a few weeks ago when he was on the podcast with the whole Florida Gateway College team but today we dive deep into his personal story. Hunter achieved some notoriety, but not in the most desirable way. He was ejected out of his boat due to a freak accident and he was lucky enough to not get run over by any boats during the start of a Bass Tournament. He was wearing his lifejacket so he made it out ok. Hunter is now using that experience to travel around to speak and educate people on water safety.

I have been on a mission to find a way that I can have a trolling motor system that will never run out of juice. This year has been a real game changer because Power Pole came out with a new charger that charges on the go and I have switched to Lithium Pro Batteries. So the idea is that I will never run out of battery juice. I needed some advice so I invited Joe Cubberley to come on the show. I have never met someone who knows as much about batteries as Joe. He was in the Navy and has worked with all different types of batteries. Joe goes over how to take care of each battery type to get the maximum amount of life and performance from it. He goes over everything from Lead-Acid batteries, to AGM batteries and the new Lithium Pro Batteries. You can learn more about the Power-Pole Charger HERE Learn more about Lithium Pro HERE Check out the HOW 2 TUESDAY with Joe HERE This episode has been brought to you by Waypoint TV. Waypoint is the ultimate outdoor network featuring streaming of full length fishing and hunti

Bouncer Smith is a legendary Sportfishing Captain in Miami, FL. Bouncer gives some excellent advice on setting the drag for all gamefish. Use a hand scale every time. Point the rod directly at the scale and pull back until the drag slips at 20% of the breaking strength of the line. Use the scale to observe how the drag changes as your customers or friends pull on the line and bend the rod Practice so much that you can know exactly how hard the angler is pulling by the bend in the rod simply by looking at the rod or feeling the pull with your eyes closed. Great advice from someone who knows their stuff!

After 16 seasons of Saltwater Experience we had our first Cobia show ever. It wasn't that we didn't like fishing for Cobia, or that we didn't know how, but it just never worked out. So after filming this show I thought it would be good to do a How 2 Tuesday on tips for fishing for Cobia. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Don't lose track of how many pushups you have done, download a spreadsheet to document how many you have done and how many you have left by CLICKING HERE. Some people have told me that they have been getting sore from all the pushups and my recommendation would be to try to change up how you are doing the pushup and how man you are doing. Keep your sets light and just do them frequently. After so many pushups with your elbows close, do some with your elbow out. Do some pushups with a narrow hand position and some wide. That will hopefully keep you from getting too sore. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This podcast has been a long time coming, as Shaw has been on my list since the inception of this show. He has been an incredible helper and coach in my life. My first television exposure was due to Shaw Grigsby and he really brought me into the industry. After a few years, we decided to launch a show and Shaw was incredibly encouraging and even let us borrow his crew. He really cut the learning curve a lot and I've been forever grateful for that. After so many years Shaw has maintained that same level of teaching and encouragement with me and so many other people. He's truly and all-around great guy, I hope you enjoy this show with my long time friend, Shaw Grigsby.

Todays episode is coming from a Saltwater Experience shoot down here in the Florida Keys. One of the shoots we got to fish with Derek DeYoung and we went Barracuda fishing on the flats. In the wintertime, the barracudas will push up into the shallower water where they can ambush baitfish and make a living up there. For whatever reason, in the winter they really push up into the shallow water and in this situation I love to use a Floater-Diver-Plug. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The burpee is not someone's favorite exercise, and its actually something that most people really don't like to do. If you aren't familiar with the burpee exercise it is when you start on your feet and drop down to do a push up, then move back to your feet and jump up in the air and clap your hands above your head. I really like the burpee because it is something that you can do absolutely anywhere with no equipment. I recently heard that there is a correlation between your ability to get down and stand up and how long you'll live. If you're able to sit down and stand up without using your hands then that is a an indicator to your quality of life and length of life. But I think it is really a good indicator of your joint/muscle health and the burpee is helping those parts of your body as well. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Todays guest is someone who I've wanted to have on the podcast for some time. I heard him on a podcast a few years ago and he has an incredible story. Growing up homeless and catching rattlesnakes as a kid, going to finding wrestling and turning into an elite power lifter. All the while Chris excelled in his job which turned into a career in the Aerospace world. Chris Duffin is an incredibly intelligent person and has defied a lot of odds to end up where he is today. He recently wrote a book called The Eagle And The Dragon and he dives more into details about how he grew up. We got to talk about his book on this podcast and also we were able to connect because he made a post about which podcast to be on next. A lot of people commented that he should be on this one, so thank you for that! It was amazing to sit down with Chris and get to talk about his life and where he is today.

Two is one and one is none. That is to say that when you are packing it is best to pack two (especially if it is something cheap). Because you can't always know what will happen and having a back up will keep you prepared. For something like contact solution or sunglasses, it can really ruin your trip to go without, so why not just pack extra? For this episode I reflect on conversations with outdoor photographer Jason Stemple. Jason and I were talking on a recent shoot when this topic came up about how he packs. He is constantly on the road and he has photography equipment and fishing equipment he needs to be able to pack up quickly and effectively. Learn more about your ad choices.
