Short answer - NO
Long answer - NO. But the long answer starts with - Do you cheat on yourself when nobody is looking?
You don't train for it - you deal with it. The mental part is dealing with it.
Notice how almost all of the threads like this return to the mental state of the individual?
A strong mind can carry a weak body father than a strong body can carry a weak mind.
So you can go without sleep to see what it feels like and go without food for a while to see what that feels like - but knowing what it feels like is not the same as running through the woods at 0200, bouncing off a tree, realizing you have uncounted clicks to go - and get on with it.
