 where you went hunting, is it a high elevation? when I say high, I mean higher then it is here which would be a max of 200-300m, lol. looks like pretty thick growth too, and what kind of trees? lots of questions I know, but I like to get a rough idea of what different areas topography/vegetation is like  .great pics too, by the way. |
topography is everything from some small but pretty level areas to about a 80-90% slope.. which one guy tried to attempt, but didn't make it, so he sidehilled his way out.... That's usually what we end up doing also, sidehilling on trails.

So, yeah, the elevation, lack of oxygen does become a factor when hiking.

having a little problem getting my groove on right now.

The best part of fancy dress parties is looking around to see what everyone else is wearing (and then stealing their ideas!). |

Trees - pine, fir, tamarack, spruce, aspens, - brush is shitty - alders and I don't know what the others are called, but alot is impassible, especially if you're carrying a backpack. topography is everything from some small but pretty level areas to about a 80-90% slope.. which one guy tried to attempt, but didn't make it, so he sidehilled his way out.... That's usually what we end up doing also, sidehilling on trails.We had a seminar a couple of years ago by a "big hunter", and for the life of me, I can't remember what his name is, but he does alot of hunting videos that are out. But, anyway, the question was raised if he had ever hunted here.. his response was "yeah, I came up for 9 days and never saw a single elk - and will never hunt here again because it's too difficult" if that tells you what the terrain is, nothing else will.. shot range,, you have either close shots 40-70 yards or the next best thing is over 200+.. across the draw. The only time I got 40-70 yards was were we scared them out of there beds and heard them running away. Our ten day hunt pretty much "maxes" me out for the next month.. then we start deer hunting, which goes until December. |

Tonight was cardio - 30 minutes on the stepmil at level 4 and 20 minutes on the treadmill - I was intending to do 30 minutes on it but I pooped out. Oh yeah, the other half corrected me on the elevation also - the top of the mt is 5500 ft and our camp is at 4500 feet.... I could never judge distances anyway.. it's amazing I can hit a target when I shoot a gun..... |

The other half does have a range finder though,, and we did alot of measuring of different areas this year.. some didn't even register though, because his contraption only reads to 600 yrds. |

No, it was definitely him, because we were told by a couple of the guys that manned the elevator that he was there..|

That's hard to say, people always looks bigger on tv and photos.. but, yeah, I would have pictured him to be larger all the way around. |
that's just too cool, brother

Today was cardio - 25 minutes on the eliptical - 5 minutes cool down Our plan is to keep the full body workout for the next six weeks, with a day of cardio between and weekends off.. that's the plan anyway, lets see if we stick to it. Then after six weeks, we'll change it up again and go to a different routine. It just feels really good to get back in the gym. I think that's the longest break we've had in the last two years. |

Any reason you did three leg exercises in a row rather than split them up through out your routine ?

The workout is so intense that you need the carbs to fuel it. 4 x cups of coffee before helps. I did it for a while, and it's very very tough, mind I sometimes followed it with a 4 mile run. After which I was no use to anybody. |

I think we'll raise our RI's the next time and see how that works. Sam - I can totally see how this would help if you're on a cut... I'm pretty much just maintaining right now.. I'm not ready to commit to another cut right at the present time,,, but I should |

just mainly my back and abs are the worst.
I was still sore and this workout was hard. I did raise some weights though... I guess I should start putting in the PR's now
