So used to be in super good shape long ago; lifting, running, mma, jap ju-jitsu, and hiking.

Working on getting back into shape now (31 y/o) thinking I want to trim down and focus mainly cardio and two days of lifting. No money for MMA type training at moment.

Looking to be in shape in event of civil war, shit hit the fan scenario, getting jumped, etc (serious). Just looking to see if anyone has tips, motivational videos, books, etc.

Also what do you do? I think fitness is really important especially in these crazy times.

This worked well for me. Stay committed and follow the progressions as stated. Don't try to skip ahead too much or else you might plateau. I used stairs for pull ups, kitchen counters for the dips, etc.

Get a good jump rope for your warm up and alternate that with sprints. Also get a great full body stretch routine and make that a habit after each workout session. Mine usually only last about 3 mins but it makes a world of difference for your recovery and soreness.

Yeah I really need to start stretching after I tend to slack on that and lately I can tell.

Yeah, I was never one for stretching but it's a great habit to start.
