always in shape, sorry but doing some exercise 3 mo before the season is almost pointless, takes some time to build up your cardio level.

Honestly, NOTHING could be further from the truth.

that is complete BS, if you said a couple weeks maybe there would be some truth to that but 3 months is a pretty significant lifestyle change. Keep it up guys

Agreed.  Even if you are always in shape, and you decide to start training for an event (marathon, fight, sheep hunt, etc...), then 3 months will increase your cardio vascular and muscular endurance significantly.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

3 months is a long time to get in shape, a lot of cardio conditioning can be done in that time.

Yes...3 months is great! I push the envelope and usually wait till about 3 minutes before my hunt... The 2 1/2 hour backpack trip into camp is my cardio training for my hunt!!  :chuckle:

Honestly...being somewhat young and in decent shape... thats about all i need... but...every year it gets a little harder. Maybe next year I'll move it up to 3 days....then the next year 3 weeks..... then...as time goes by, I might even go the full 3 months??? :P

i am working for the forest service in st. regis/ superior montana for the summer working on the trails crew. there are soo many trails steep moderate and not too bad. they all are a bit harder when you are packing a stihl 460 28" bar  a couple quarts of gas and oil  then wearing your chaps, and all your ppe i also hike with atleast a gallon of water on me for the day, swing a polaski for digging trail/ cutting lots of stuff up. been getting warmer lately. hopefully this last month will really help out. a lot of the hiking has been at or near 7000 ft. so we will see if this helps a lot

you're definitely going to be outdoing 99% of others.

that'll get you in mountain shape :IBCOOL:
just did 8 1/2 miles today  and followed some real fresh bull elk track for 2 1/2 miles of it.  i plan on harrasing there elk with calls and stuff before i come hm for the season.

path finder    i have been using glucosamine  it is a vitamin that helps the cartledge or something in your knees. i have been using it over here in montana for just over a month and have noticed a little less pain while hiking the trails.

I recommend Crossfit, it will turn you into a hill-climbing beast. Winded won't be a word you know anymore. It's tough though, takes me 3 months just to feel comfortable after the required "warm up"

I walked the golf course yesterday, instead of getting in my buddies cart.  Should be good to go.   :chuckle:
