From knowledge to action
Daily. Weekly. Monthly.
Daily: Learn something.
Weekly: Do something.
Monthly: Test yourself.
Challenges are practical and low-cost or no-cost. Locate a shutoff. Name a meeting place. Walk a route. They are not a reason to buy more gear.
The point
Skills, Not Stuff.
Teach decisions before equipment.
PrepReps focuses on knowledge, judgment, practical skills, awareness, and small useful actions. Equipment can help, but it is not the curriculum. Capability is what you can do when the usual systems are not there.

About PrepReps
Practice, not a shopping list.
PrepReps was created because preparedness is too often presented as something people buy rather than something they practice. The app is a field-guide for short, repeatable reps: learn something every day, do something every week, test yourself every month.
