Would you be able to physically handle it if services stopped for a few weeks and you had to carry all your water, chop wood for heat, or walk ten miles to get to a new place? Today, we talk with Stephen Boone of SHTF Fitness about getting our bodies in shape.

Main content of the show
Stephen has been coaching clients in person for years in his studio. His passion for helping others become the best version of themselves has led him to start SHTF Fitness so that he can help like-minded, freedom loving individuals who may not have access to a gym.
Stephen specializes in strength training and corrective exercise. He blends conventional strength training methods with Chiropractic corrective movements in order to create a strong, mobile, and pain free individual.
Stephen wants to provide value to the prepper community by teaching them how to be physically prepared for the future. Stephen feels that this is currently extremely lacking in the prepper/homesteader space where most things are considered except for physical fitness. This is done without the use of a gym, since most preppers and homesteaders will not have access to a conventional gym.

Last night, I ate Chinese food and read my fortune - it basically said Life Goes ON – Being an overanalyzer, I thought about that throughout the night and wanted to talk about the sentiment - some people consider it defeatist, but is it?
Going Live with Toolman Tim on his show at 12:30 today: https://youtu.be/odWS8cSuTGs

Main topic of the Show: Life Goes On - Defeatist or Insightful?
Failure is not defeat unless you stop trying - in other words Life goes on…
Have you ever been in a really tight place, and someone said to you Life Goes On? And you get mad because it is A: heartless, and B: defeatist?
I know I have….but is it?
Life goes on – defeatist view
Life goes on: the facts
So life goes on…
And since that was a short overanalysis, we had a second fortune: Cooking is easy. Doing the dishes is the hard part.
I really love this one. Have you ever cleaned dishes behind a chef? It can take hours. (BRETT Story)
But what happens when you don’t do the dishes?
Figurative overanalysis
A final thought: Cooperation works better.
Thank you to the community for supporting an anonymous need - we made an immediate difference.

Frugality Tip
Listened to the podcast with John Willis, you, and Bear… and since peppers love buckets here’s my tip .
At Walmart you can go to the bakery, and ask for the icing buckets . They are 1 and 5 gals, with lids . They do a quick rinse of them , but they are still oily . They used to be free, my local Walmart recently starting charging $1 for each piece .The lids are a-gamma type with a rubber seal . Very very very sturdy buckets . Before the , plandemic , and I would stop by weekly grabbed about 100 with lids ,over a few months . I live outside a small town of 6,000 people , next town has 10,000 people .So not heavily populated area .in the spring when I plant veggies in the garden , we’ll have a storm come through , ice ,sleet etc .I use these buckets to cover each plant for frost protection , if we get a late snow , I put the buckets on the plants , and then cover everything with an old sheet, tarp, blanket, and put a brick on top of that .Saved my plants many a time , by pushing the season a little .I also use the buckets to store food, use for water bowls for animals , store bird seed in them , blackout kit …..uses are endless …..when they degrade over time I throw them out and have more….
Have a great day ..Debi
Weekly Shopping Report from Joe
We made three stops on our trip today. The first stop was Dollar[-twenty five] Tree. No more mackerel, but they have a lot of other canned items, beans and rice (smaller bags), egg noodles, and spices. There were more mugs and other glassware than I've seen in a while. One of the food coolers in the back was completely empty and dark; I did not ask about it. The others were all full.
Home Depot was next. Milwaukee has a uniquely shaped ("hawk-bill") knife that Wife really likes, so I got one too. The shape is great for working in the garden, opening packages, and other common tasks. A 2x4x8 is still $4.98. There was not much on the cull cart this week. We picked up some 30% UV shade cloth we'd ordered; it really helps plants to not bake in the hot sun.
Our final stop was Aldi. Despite a light list with no meat (other than bacon) this week, the bill seemed a little high, but we know that's how it is now. Stock levels were good in all areas except perhaps meat, which was a little light, but not alarming. Some of the prepping channels I watch are reporting some shortages, but fortunately we're not seeing it here yet.
I saw only a few face-diapers, mostly in Aldi. Traffic was fairly light for a Saturday. Untainted regular has gone back up to $5.099.

Main topic of the Show: Money Mornings
My3Things, Garden30, Frugality Tip, Selfish Sunday, Money Morning are all gimmicks.(Compare to diets)
Why using gimmicks to make progress works.
What is Money Mornings?
Why did you start them?
How do you decide what makes money?
Does it preclude you from making money in the afternoon?
How do homesteading afternoons help you reach your goals if you are not making money?
What has been the result of Money Mornings?
What does this mean for me?
Land on gimmick as a tool for focus.
