That would be a bit presumptuous of you Tanner...I did not mention anything about a lack of physical exercise.
I merely do not get off on explaining to all and sundry how I need to be a tri-athlete to hunt, and I am pretty sure the only one that needs to be able to swim whilst hunting with a rifle is Stick.
? I enjoy and benefit reading other peoples workouts and have used a bunch of ideas from here in my own training. I don't need a tri-athlete to hunt but guarantee it doesn't hurt. Thinking that I'm swimming for hunting would be a bit presumptuous of you..... Tanner Oh, is this a closed forum? So, you are a tri-athlete...and you want me to know. Oh...of me, are you sure?
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

And I am all for fitness...but lets not pretend that we need to haul around weights all day so we can hunt.
Walking and working on back is of benefit...benching 300 lbs is pointless unless trying to impress everyone with your magnificence.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Lifting heavy is not pointless.
Besides the added strength you develop, there is a boost in your natural testosterone.
That enhances your overall fitness efforts.
The key is not going to the point of injury.

He clarified his hunting style here: ....Na, don't have to...I've got a Toyota!

Well, no wonder, he needs to be on the hunting trucks and four-wheel drive forum.
Did cardio yesterday, intervals on the stair machine, then stationary bike for a total of 60 minutes. Had a PT session for the wrist and then a follow-up Dr's appointment, so nothing today.
Hope to be exercising my casting arm on the Atlantic coast of FL this weekend....

Spent 2 hours on a different workout, but it was a good one.
Took a lesson on trying to stay on a snowboard. It was ugly and entailed a lot of falling and getting back on. Give me time, I'll ride the damn thing yet.
Core got a workout, shoulders and elbows took some bumps, but came home intact. Young Buck who took me under his wing bounced around on one like it was part of his body.
Lot of hot looking Babe's around so I figured Smoke was there someplace, but we didn't cross paths. Didn't check the hot tube so that is probably the reason.

That was a slow pitch.... good on you for taking the high road, although I'm sort of disappointed.
