Elk Shape

[jackelope]

Accually I make a good push around the first of july , My body hurts so much allready that if I ran all year my feet and knees would be shot . I stay active year round with fast pitch and lifestyle. Really when it comes down to it a good steady pace is what it takes . I'm a big guy and I figure slow and steady with a heavy pack works best for me . one of these days i'm gonna just have the boys packem out for me , just not there quite yet.

Kris was telling me just the other day how he can't wait to pack out a bull for you this year.

I'm down about 40 pounds since about the beginning of March, I'm looking forward to this season!

I really need to draw a good permit just for the motivation factor. If that doesn't happen- well, I'll probably do little to get in shape other than the exercise I get over the summer checking my trail cameras.

Bobcat, I checked the backdoor to the backdoor results (super tricky)....and you were drawn for MOOSE, GOAT, QUALITY ELK....and the INCENTIVE TAGS-EASTSIDE ELK and DEER.

THANK YOU!

Tomorrow I will start jogging, and at lunch time I will walk the stairs during lunch.

Thanks again, nothing like a little motivation!   

What really amazes me though, is how I was able to draw that goat tag without even submitting an application.

I started getting in shape Nov 2011.  Half way there.
gonna get another one.

Kopper, it doesn't matter which types as long as you can interchange quickly if you need to.  The thing I like about p90x is it emphasizes quality over quantity, basically performing each maneuver correctly each and everytime and getting the quality of proper technique rather than as many as possible incorrectly.

Sniper, its killer at first but after the 2nd week your body starts to get the hang of all the new wrok its putting in andbefore you know it you're almost done and your ready for the next program to really. Push yourself.

yeah we have had a couple of ugly pack out in the past . the spot that i have in mind this year is brutal . I'm gonna have to figure a way out the bottom of the canyon . Going back up might not be an option . oh yeah I need the tag first !

Oh yeah im gettin ready. P90X second round and lots of extra cardio. Ready to back a big one out of the blues this year.

Nice, bigbulls.  I'm on my 2nd round as well.  I finished the lean and now on classic and just finished the 3rd week of classic.  After nearly dying packing out my elk from last year I was not going to go in half A.. this year and started in Jan.  keep up the good work.

I'm looking to start this soon. How long does a typical workout last? What equipment do I need?

about an hour 6 days a week. all ya need is a set of dumbells and a pullup bar and lots of ambition and drive.

   Majority of the workouts are an hour max. with stretching and cool down except a few of them call for abs which makes (depending on the program) it an hour and 16 mins. 2 or 3 times a week.  I use the heavy weight bands and dumbbells.

did u see any real results from doing the lean?

Definitely, lost 50lbs on the lean program and the classic one im at about 14lbs for this month already.  Classic is geared more towards getting stronger and building muscle while lean was more towards losing weight and getting lean basically.  either way they are both challenging but, you start to see improvements after a couple of weeks if you're pushing yourself.

With ab workouts, stretching and cool down it thought it was pushing 1.5 hours, plus not getting up off the floor for another half hour...

If you're doing the lean program then you're looking at 50 minutes to 1hr and 20 mins.  2 days out of the week the workout is an hour with another 16 mins. for ab ripper x and then you have one day a week with yoga x which is close to an hour and half but, generally plan for at least an hour.   If you're just starting then like Odell mentioned add another half hour to drag yourself off the floor.

I'm up between 4:15 and 4:30am and start putting in work and usually finish by 5:45 or 6:00am then wake the wife and kids up and get ready for the day.

Just stumble on to this thread and thought I'd drudge it up since it is almost 2 years ago to the day and ironically I started a program to get into "Elk" shape Monday 

End goal being a quick and steady accent of South Sister here in Oregon for my 32nd birthday August 9th. 

Its that time of year everyone!!!!

Good luck to you. My folks live in Redmond and can see Sister's from their house. We will be in the Chesnimus unit this fall so I too and working on getting into elk shape

Insanity "Fast & Furious" for me.  I love that it gets me seriously sweating, and only lasts 20 minutes.  I just don't do an hour workout regular.  Don't have the time every day, but you can always squeeze in 20 minutes.

I' m on it ! road a few extra miles this morning since I'm gonna have to chase some young punk up those 11000 foot mountains next fall.
