Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting 2018 Fitness- Workout thread

definitely has been cold of late, looks like a slight warmup for weekend

Driftboater- what rifle? is that the same one you posted earlier, if it is didn't notice the fluting

Tiny Elvis wasn't happy getting left behind this morning, so took him out for 3 miles this afternoon

Haha, poor Tiny. Yes it is the same rifle from Monday's outing. It was a gloomy, snowy day on Monday hence the pic quality suffered. It's a Legendary Arms Works Professional .280AI. I like this rifle setup shooting 162gr ELD-x hand-loads in more open terrain where the shots may be a little longer. It's like antelope hunting on that particular BMA.

Plus-one for the 7mm ELD's. The 180 ELD-M is a great bullet; I use it in my heavy 7 WSM. Love the 162's too of course.

Nice rifle

I've been working out, just not posting. Cardio yesterday. Still having problems with the ankle, seems to be some sort of bone bruising or microfracture causing a sharp pain. Going for an MRI and CAT scan next week to see if they can find anything.

Luckily, I've far exceeded my deductible for the year.......

That IS lucky! Dayum. I need to get with the program.

Yeah, you've had quite the year. May 2019 be better.

Hopefully it's "just" a little spur or or adhesion or something they can clean up easily.

good luck with that smoke, hopefully something easily remedied

12 miles and ~2800' of gain on snow packed trails

Sorry to hear this, best wishes for a good outcome. Enough is enough.

Thanks Harry. I'm pretty sure I'm not done yet....

Finally manned up and ran in the cold, felt good, except all the parts that hurt!!! Only 1.3 miles, but haven't run in a while so figured I'd work back into it slowly.

Stairmaster: 15minutes
iSatori: Weights
Treadmill: 30minutes.

3 miles on the trails with Tiny E, most of it with a headlamp- looking forward to the days lengthening

4.5 miles on the trails with Tiny E, had my spikes on but only needed in a few shorter sections, better to have them and not need them, than need them and not have them

gym today

squats 3/3/3+/10, bench 3/3/3+/10, pull-ups 3x11, dips 3x30, core

Treadmill intervals: 45minutes
iSatori: Weights
Stairmaster: 15minutes

braved the 35 mph winds and got 3 in with Tiny E

How’d the nose taste? LOL

Ha!!!!

Core, quads, butt, hips, etc

You should really up the cardio....
