Unless you are a treestand hunter you have to get in some kind of shape to have a decent shot of killing an elk.  I train pretty good during the summer climbing stairs mostly, and long walks.  I dont do much of the weights just to tone a little.

My kids are in sportfit.    They are tone, athletic machines.   I ran into a guy yesterday who asked if I was going to do it.  "I told him I spend all day in a hospital, if you think I want to go back there this afternoon your nutz."

There's a reason the army makes you wear a helmet clockum, and it ain't got nothing to do with flying a helicopter.  :chuckle:

I'm in. Was going to enter the 46 Rail Mile Mountain Bowathalon if they have it this year, but this looks even better.

Does anybody on here subscribe to their website?  I've been looking into Crossfit/Insanity/P-90X type workouts and this looks like you might get a lot more for your money.

I use the Insanity work out all the time.  When i began in August last summer i weighed 245lbs.  At the end of the 63 day workout i droped down to 197.  I played sports my entire life and this IS physically the hardest thing i have ever done, hands down.  That being said i feel awesome now and have reeped the rewards of being chisled from the wife... :chuckle:
