Dogs and Chainsaws - Developing useful reflexes

23rd January 2023

A recent event encountered by Richard Prideaux involving a dog, a chainsaw and quick reactions was the inspiration for this latest episode of Modern Outdoor Survival. We delve into reflexes and our acute stress responses as humans.

Richard and Amy talk in detail about how your body reacts to acute stress and the importance of practicing potentially life saving sequences in order to manipulate your body into reacting well. This isn’t a quick fix or easy way of doing things, but it is something worth dedicating time to.
