In this episode of Talk is Sheep, host Kyle Stelter sits down with Kyle Kamp (Mountain Tough) to talk about the often-missed edge in mountain hunting: nutrition that’s consistent, flexible, and hunt-proof.

Kyle breaks down why macronutrients matter, how to build a plan that actually fits real life, and why autonomy and flexibility are critical for long-term success—especially when training for the mountains. He also shares his personal weight-loss journey that launched his career in nutrition, and offers practical, field-ready strategies for maintaining energy on long days, staying fueled during multi-day hunts, and using supplements the right way (as support—not a substitute).

If you want to show up stronger, recover faster, and keep your engine running when it counts, this one’s for you.

Key takeaways

• Consistency beats perfection—every time.
• Flexibility and autonomy make nutrition sustainable.
• Macronutrients directly impact performance and recovery.
• Planning your hunt nutrition is essential for success.
• Supplements can help, but fundamentals come first.
• Community support accelerates progress and accountability.
