Most prepping gurus seem to be fully invested in the Arnold Plan of Complete Time And Effort Dominance.  Don’t watch TV.  Don’t look at Internet porn.  Just PT, take karate, work two jobs to buy FLIR scopes, go to firearms training, take night classes to be your own mechanic and accountant and welder.  ‘Cause, you know, specialization is for insects.  And because, you know, relaxing is for girly men.  You can rest when you’re dead.  No time for the wife, and no time for base animal urges like sex.  Train, PT, run drills, train.  I want to detour slightly here, as is my wont, and point out the embarrassment of females past their prime.
*
You know who I’m talking about.  We have an Internet plastered with before and after female stars.  Look at the hottie from the 80’s who now looks like lukewarm feces.  If she got any cosmetic surgery she looks like thrice warmed over lukewarm feces.  Obviously, these gals should have taken time off of grooming to watch the film “Brazil”.  That is what your face looks like old and after too many attempts to fool Mother Nature.  Personally, I like a gal who looks like she’s been rung through the ringer.  It instills humility and gives her a healthy dose of fear.  If she knows she can’t rely on her looks, she’ll put some effort in the relationship ( the ugly and fat ones offer the best oral sex ).
*
These gals cannot bring themselves to accept that they age, and cling to a strategy long past its shelf life.  And the guys that stay attracted to only young gals, you’re embarrassing yourself.  You aren’t accepting aging either.  And those guys trying to super achieve and live the young mans game in prepping?  They are just as much out of tune to reality.  When you are young, you can run around the clock and train all night after working all day.  But guess what?  Crap wears out.  Welcome to entropy.
*
When I hear some hoo-rah motivational BS, I can’t help thinking of fat bitches wearing school girl costumes to try to stay young.  Your time has passed, cat lady.  You pissed away youth with gravity defying tits to preach hatred of men, then try to be sexy later?  Youth is a display of fertility, which is the ignition to male sexual drive.  Once fertility goes, so goes your mating desirability.  Accept that you are old and that you cannot breed ( don’t get me started on stupid bitches trying to go past the safe point on that ) and that the best you can hope for is someone will want to hump you.  But the same goes for guys.
*
You are no longer a warrior.  You never were, but now you can’t even try to become one.  Stop acting like you can be one.  Just as sexual desirability wanes after youth, physical energy and fitness also slowly dribble away.  The goal should be to be in good shape for your age, and expect little else.  Age isn’t an excuse to stop trying, but it is a real limitation you also need to accept.  Such as, you’ll need more down time.  You are not going to have the testosterone you once did, and that isn’t just about sex drive.  It is about muscle mass and energy also.  This should be obvious.
*
Is it obvious that this will also effect the guru’s admonition to stuff all your free time with training?  If you are not young, with energy levels of youth, can you realistically expect to be able to devote the ideal levels of energy to training?  Of course not.  Age sees expertise and mastery of ones trade, not the ability to constantly be learning new ones.  Old dogs can learn new tricks, but they cannot do so efficiently.  They shouldn’t really try to, past a certain point.  Stop pretending everything is about willpower, when it is predominately biology.
*
Accepting real physical limitations means accepting living in a old mans body, and letting go of the yearnings of youth.  You can’t pretend you’ll attract or be able to satisfy younger women.  You can’t pretend you can PT as before.  And you don’t have the stamina to become a super survival stud.  Honing the skills you already have, sure.  Not a problem, barely an inconvenience.  Becoming an expert is all the new and improved prepper approved skills?  You’re probably fooling yourself.  You don’t have the energy, efficiency or endurance you once did. 
*
And that is just being old.  What about young preppers and the whole idea of super charging your schedule on the Arnold Plan?  Forget pursuing your passion for a moment.  If you are just getting started and know you have minimal time to prep like crazy, is a few years of super focus and devotion realistic?  Of course it is.  But NOT as is the perceived common wisdom of doing it all and achieving perfection.  You need to narrow your focus considerably.  Stop trying to perfect your weaknesses and hyper focus on your strengths.  You are young and virile.  Use that.
*
Stop being a stupid ass.  You can’t be a farming welding tactical team member fence building cow raising sniper assassin super villain hidden volcano base building super survivalist.  You are a guy that is good at his paying job and has the energy and drive for that.  Double down on the skills you already have, to cash out all your available time you can REALISTICALLY set aside and work like a galley slave.  Save your money, work at needing less living expenses to save even more, devote the few hours sitting down to researching for the place you’d like to live.  Make it junk land, NOT super survival retreats, and you’ll have the funds to build on the land sooner rather than later. 
*
Now stop earning so much money and put all your energy into building your cash poor labor rich super insulated home.  As soon as you can, you move out there and accept diminished pay and status work nearby.  THEN, and only then, can you start learning all those required survival skills everyone seems to think everyone else can learn in their copious free time.  If you aren’t already too old and worn out from the effort of fleeing the rat race.  Learning new crap is a distraction, regardless of how needed those skills are in theory.  When time is short, as is energy, you focus on strengths and go with them.  Not weaknesses. 
*
Does it matter if you are tacti-cool gun ready if you are in a poorly built on grid home near hundreds of thousands of people?  Focus on fundamentals.  Food and shelter, with minimal defense.  Max your defense AFTER shelter and calories.  Not before.  Insulate yourself from the collapse, not just fictional zombie bikers.  Stop worrying about perfecting your perceived level of ability and focus on what you are already doing to earn a living.  Do it better, maximize earnings to create a safe place.  Prioritize and maximize.  Then expand, if there is time.  The Arnold Plan is a hot house flower.  It doesn’t go well with the real world.

  1. I see what you are saying, mocking the pretty preppers, but a little PT is necessary to make sure you know what your limitations are. That and acclimation to your local weather conditions. Folks that claim to prep, but insist on keeping their home at 72 air conditioned degrees are in for a rude reality when the power goes out. Building and living on junk land now will put you well ahead of that curve.

    I prefer the older women as well, but not just for the reasons you stated. Most of them are either finished playing head games or so good at it by now you don't notice they are doing it.

    1. Well, as I said, you need to be in good shape for your age. I assumed that was understood to mean you were exercising daily. Not sure how anyone can be in shape after a certain age if they aren't. Hell, I've had to step up my regimen as my bowling ball gut threatens to grow to a beach ball if I don't. The exercise bike is no longer adequate, so it's back to the wild streets of Elko for better resistance cardio and better muscle maintanence. Boring as heck compared to watching YouTube while I pedal, but a constant sore back means one day I suddenly throw it out. I'd rather be bored than that. Also doubling the push-ups. Now that I've become a professional cubical warrior, pushing the limitations has become far more important. Doesn't mean I'll start jogging or hiking with a fifty pound ruck though. That's for young-uns.

  2. Well, if you are going out into the wilds of Elko, bring a day pack with ya and explore the dumpsters. You never know what you will find, and I think it's a lot more interesting than YouTube. It definitely will work a few more muscles out than the exercise bike.

    1. Not really much to check out in dumpsters. I've kept an eye on them and, meh. Besides, the cardio would suck if I kept stopping.

  3. Being disabled forces you to accept your limitations. I am determined to be a skinny old man, not a fat one. That's as close to "in shape" as I intend to worry about. Egotistical little shits with low self esteem Can't fix what is wrong with them with big muscles or big guns. Buying a 4 wheel drive doesn't make your pecker any bigger or stiffer! Reality is a bitch!

    1. Wow! Easy there. If you mount a FLIR device to your four wheel drive, I have it on very good authority that your junk will increase in girth and remain stiff as a board. All you Pathetic Pete's that thought you owned the night with NVD's, you are pathetic and weak girly men. Upgrade to FLIR or be left behind. ( on a serious note, at your age getting skinny is probably going to do wonders anyway. I'd call it a win )

  4. The bigger the cushion the better the pushin'. Fat gurlz is tighter. In the beginning my wife was the ideal body as far as I'm concerned but she's always driven for the need to "lose 5 more pounds". Now, 35 years down the line she'd downright skinny as far as I'm concerned.

    Regarding TV. TV quit me, I didn't quit TV. Since the 80's it's been a constant downward slide and no matter how much money I threw at it each month it just kept getting worse. I swear they were trying to piss me off personally. I don't do sitcoms or sitdrams, or cop shows, no news, and what's with all the church shows and infomercial channels? $150/mth for 300 channels and nothings on. We got rid of all of it, got an antenna and they is still nothing worth watching but it doesn't cost anything. Our Hughes internet satellite at $80/mth gives us 30 gb a month and last night we streamed "Better Call Saul" and that knocked off a gig right there. I rarely even watch videos on the computer and have every video blocker extension I can find.

    As far as this aging thing, it's a real hor and I'm resisting it the best I can and not sure of any benefit. When it goes down I won't be charging through the woods like a craven warrior but I can walk a straight line, for hours if necessary, and I can get a lot of lead down range. And maybe a few other things. I'm keeping my school gurl figure by physical work as much as I can. I'm helping a guy build an 88'x60' pole barn and this morning we set 13 of the 6x6 poles that we augered 62 holes for yesterday. When the rain lets up we'll jump on it again. How far can you and 1 other guy lift and carry a 24' long pressure treated 6x6 post? Go grab one, I double dawg dare ya! LOL

    1. We had just got done buying the complete DVD set of Breaking Bad ( experimented with season one, it was so good we bought another each payday ) when we started getting Netflix. Oops! I just bought the DVD "Maximum Overdrive" at an inflated price ( what I feel is an underappreciated Stephen King effort, AND a quasi-apocalypse film )and a month later it comes on Amazon Prime. Drat! But at least I own them and they won't disappear with Netflix ( which WILL go bankrupt. Timing is the only question ). My whole point here is you might consider owning DVD's as I did prior to moving into town. Not the cheapest option but you only pay for the good stuff. Oh, another one-the sci-fi series Firefly, its movie. Bought the DVD and then it was on streaming. Currently I'm debating buying Miami Vice or Seinfeld on DVD. Both priced to hurt, even used. But I always plan as if I'm moving back to the B-POD.

    2. DVD is about the only way we watch TV any more and we watch it for about an hour at suppertime. Our son gave us the first couple epi's of Breaking Bad a few years ago that he downed somewhere and put on a USB drive. We got hooked and got the DVD's like you did. That's what caused us to look at the "Better Call Saul" series, he's from Breaking Bad. Last nights epi of Saul had that, oh what's his name, the spanish guy that runs the chicken joint?, on there and he's just as devious as ever. The Saul series PRECEDES the BB series. Yeah, a little confusing at first. Mike Ehrmantrout is on there too.

      We have 5 DVD players in the living room connected to a 48" Sanyo tv, and also the Amazon, what's it called, "Fire" thing? Small, black, streams.

      In the 5 DVD players, that we rotate thru each night, are mostly 1950's western TV shows. Gunsmoke, The Texan, Tombstone Territory, Zane Grey Theater, can't remember the other one, are the current line up. Just remembered, Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Spent most of my life thinking Hitchcock was scary but it turns out he's not. Not at all. But he's very clever and downright funny. At the beginning of each episode he drags the "sponsors" across the coals.

    3. Plenty of local TV stations were playing the very old stuff-they had Hitchcock. Unfortunately they have a low number of episodes and play the same ones too often. I remember we got sacks of mystery magazines when I was a kid. Ellery Queen was okay, but Hitchcock's was really good.

  5. It is very liberating to hear someone say it's NORMAL to need some down time EVERY DAY to keep from burning out. With the stresses of working, raising kids, maintaining a social life and (oh by the way) PREPARING FOR THE END OF THE WORLD it's easy to feel guilty when one area is neglected for a day to focus on the others. Thanks for the affirmation.

    True, but what are you gonna do? Mr Johnson disagrees; has a mind of his own, and refuses to cooperate :D

  7. Ha.

    I've been beating myself up for the last couple of years because I haven't been training. I'm not making excuses or whatever but at the end of my work day I'm exhausted. At the end of my work week I'm beat.

    Lord Bison & Ave - in the end I used my tax return to pay down my debts. I have enough guns for all my tribe even if not everyone will have an ideal one. My "treat" to myself was a fire lighting kit with flint and steel as well as a magnifying glass.

    1. Paying down debt is going to not only help greatly, it helps more every single payday. You get richer every time. Good on you. As for training, it pisses me off no end we have to defend ourselves for being exhausted from normal life. Presumpuous asswhores. Just keep trying to do a little but be pleased with anything. And if not, well, you still brought home the bacon and survived today. The All Training Prepper is a mythical creature like Super Mom. Your head will explode trying to achieve the myth.

    2. In the end you only have to satisfy you. I'm never satisfied.

    3. In the end that is the only criteria. Of course, we all also die in the end, so there's that :)

  8. Jim, good articles. I hang out with older fellows and have learned early on from them the limitations as one ages. Just be young and energetic for your current age bracket and good to go. Be well rounded and just a jack of all trades able to improvise and that is half the challenge. Side note, bicycling outdoors is much better p.t. as it includes balance and situational awareness training. Also grid patrols of area helps with security posture and familiarity with terrain and locals. Again, Jim your training for the apocalypse just by riding your PEE-WEE HERMAN bicycle down the lane. Ring the bell and wave vigorously at the neighbor folks.

    2. I don’t know about that, but I do know what Abraham Lincoln and the guy sitting in front of Pee Wee Herman had in common.

      They both got shot in the back of the head :D

    3. Ha! And the looks on both their faces were probably similar :)

  9. James and interested readers, check Low Tec Magazine site. "Ditch the Batteries, Off Grid Power Storage Using Compressed Air." Lots of interesting, in depth articles. One on cookstove efficiency versus open cookfire is great.
