Each episode begins with the contestants being introduced to a new
indigenous society, meeting the local elder or head man. The contestants
are introduced to the sport they will be competing in. They must live
and eat with the villagers, and help out with village chores while being
trained by the villagers, both for general fitness, and in techniques
required for the particular sport. Competitors often undertake local
rituals or traditions, such as ceremonial dancing, the wearing of tribal
clothing, body painting, medicinal treatments, ritual tests of strength
or courage, and the offering up of prayers or offerings to local gods
or spirits.
When I travel to Brazil this summer, I will do everything within my power to go to the Amazon rainforest and live among some indigenous tribes. I want to compete in some sport and become like them. I want to be free from western societal chains and see what it is like to live as a tribal warrior. I want to learn how to hunt with primal methods. I have been training my body through functional exercises and combat sports to attempt to achieve hunter-gatherer esque fitness abilities. I nourish my body as closely to indigenous hunter/gatherer tribes as I can through primal eating and intermittent fasting through the Warrior Diet principles. I avoid chronic stress by keeping my cool. Unless a saber tooth tiger is coming at me there is no reason to freak out... I get plenty of sleep. I unleash my aggression by doing Mixed Martial Arts several times a week. I will be reading books on tribal life and what to expect. I think that there is a lot that myself and the western society as a whole can learn from these people. Their way of life is about sustaining their needs and harboring nature. Not destroying and exploiting it like we do in the West. I will become a better man through the experiences which in turn will make a better world. BUTTERFLY EFFECT!
