Seriously, we are headed for very hard times, your physical fitness will give you the best chance of survival. I'm not in nearly as good of shape as I was a couple years ago but I decided a few weeks ago I have to push myself as hard as I can so now I do my exercise until I'm sore, then rest and as soon as I feel recovered I'm right back out there again. I'm getting all kinds of minor injuries but that's a good thing because I want to get injured now and recover so that when shit really starts hitting the fan I'll be in as good of shape as possible.

While I support the overall message here, it's important to exercise intelligently. Injuries are the result of going too hard, using bad form, or not allowing sufficient recovery time. Repeatedly doing something in a way that causes "minor injuries" will eventually result in a serious injury, and avoidable workout injuries can stay with you the rest of your life.
Obviously this is all assuming you're not just using "injury" as a blanket term for muscle soreness or, like, stubbing your toe on the weight rack.
