Wondering what everyone’s favourite gym exercises are for mountain hunting

I don’t have a “favorite” but F45 has been kicking my old man butt for a while. Feel better than I have in years.

Kettlebell lunges, squats, and trying to make my old fat ass run again

It’s out of the gym but I like to run stairs. I get the cardio I need to hustle on hikes when needed and then swap with a loaded pack for the other muscles.

I have been going to gym consistently for 2 years and have gained a lot of strength and discipline from it. I do a simple push/pull/leg split.

I have been focusing more on squats and core strength. But I am wondering what else everyone else does that translates to helping with mountain hunting and heavy pack outs

Sled drags forward and backwards are something I add in, as are banded step-ups.

Burpees, core exercises, general strength exercises. Lots of running and walking.

Back squats and dumbbell lunges in the 12-20 rep range.
