I usually just climb that lone, single coconut tree that's always in the center and the ships generally spot me.

How often do you get stranded on a Tropical Island? Once a month?

I always keep a bottle of creatine capsules with me just in case that happens.

Did you train during that 6 hour period?? Or did you feel sorry for yourself, and let life pass you by?

When I was ship wrecked I worked out just about every day. I did the following routine.

1. single leg squats using a coconut tree for balance. (legs)
2. body weight two leg squats (legs)
3. body weight lunges. Then jumps for height (legs and power)

4. chins up using a branch of a tree. (lats and bicep)
5. body weight rows facing the sky using a low branch about 4' high. (back)

6. various types push ups (regular, narrow, legs raised) (chest & tricep)
7. dips on two fairly level branches (chest and triceps)

8 head stand push ups for delts leaning against a coconut tree. (delts)
9. lateral raises using a coconut in each hand. (delts)

10 heel raise using a branch on the ground. (calves)

11. stuff like burpes and mountain climbers (condition)

12. various abs stuff.

For cardio I played tag with the monkeys. Freakin bastards never knew when the game was played out. Played for ever.  Fuckin jerks.

Tell us your survival methods. How did you feed yourself? Did you train? How were you rescued?
When I was 14 I borrowed a boat and took it out on my own.  I was staying at one of the islands with my family for some fishing expo.  Anyway a tropical storm blew me out to sea and I had to be rescued.  Needless to say I wasn't the flavour of the week for everyone.  That's the closest I have come to being stranded on an island.

Did you train while you were waiting to be rescued?

No I was concerned about sharks by that stage so why just thinking about not becoming shark bait.
