Default Too much talk about equipment & not enough talk about fitness & nutrition.

I am not here to bash ANYONE I am guilty of the same thing myself. I see a ton of posts related to equipment ( bow, arrows, rests & broadheads.) I don't ever recall seeing a post on fitness & nutrition?
This is an example of a "standard post"
Question: I am from abc, New York. I am planning my first elk hunt in Colorado this fall. What poundage should my bow be set at? Will my mechanical broadheads work?
Will there be snow on September 15 thru 20? What calls should I use?

(Someone from xyz, Illinios will reply with the standard answer) Standard Answer: Your bow should be set at 70-pounds. Only cut-on-contact broadheads will work. The weather should be mild in September. Hoochie mama cow calls work the best. Great in shape.

Maybe I am getting burned out? What does get in shape mean? Should a person be able to run one mile, five miles, marathons or ultra-marathons??? How do you know when you are in good shape? What does a good "everyday" diet consist of???
I am only asking these question becase I am looking for a good diet & exercise plan to follow?

Thanks,

Wolf Killer
