I’m marooned on a desert island for 1 year, I have no previous MA training, and I sincerely wish to begin KM training when I finally make it back to civilization.
What should I do in the meantime to prepare for KM?
cardio cardio cardio!
Get a mountain bike or something for when you are on that island or do lots of jogging. I know when I started I was always gassed by the half-way point of class for about…7 months.
Locate the monkeys (because these islands ALWAYS have monkeys).
Tie bananas to your body.
Taunt the monkeys.
Run!
The best thing you could do to prepare is general fitness exercises. Isometrics and cardio work would be your best friends to get the endurance strength up.
Are there Miller Lite girls there and a bbq grill? If so don’t leave, don’t worry about Km, enjoy:)
Sprints, Sprints, Sprints, that is what you should do.
Anaerobic exercises, mostly. Explosiveness training, like Andre suggested. It’s really not much cardio, relatively speaking.

Sprints and anaerobic exercises may be better for KM, but cardio would be better for your blood pressure. 🙂Why would you be worried about learning KM when you are on a lonely island? You’re the only one there, no one’s going to attack you. 😕
Well, don’t nap under a coconut tree. We were warned of this while in Tahiti. Tourists are, tragically, killed every year. Oy.
😯If you have a gym on this desert island, check out http://www.crossfit.com and start researching the WoD’s. If you can do crossfit for a year before Krav, you will be in great shape.
If there isn’t a gym…. push ups, sprints, sit ups, squats, burpee’s… etc. Every bodyweight exercise you can think of.
Post more specific details if this situation becomes more than just hypothetical.
