Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting 2016 fitness/workout thread.

Not quite 50 (you'll have to go to Smokepole & Battue - wait they're too old, nevermind).

Winter 2014 I did mostly bodyweight stuff and riding/running 3x a week. Got into a barbell routine in the summer and tried to continue the running/riding. That was too much volume for me.
This year I did barbell strength training 3x a week from Jan until this week. Now I'm doing a heavy lift day Monday, light lift Thursday, and mornings are either riding or running. I'll add swims at lunch as I get used to the schedule. Weekends are for hikes with weighted pack.
The idea is to maintain or slightly build strength while building the cardio until Fall. In fall/early winter I hope to at least do something 3-4 times a week then start the cycle again.
