Cell4soul Report post Posted August 2, 2018 Ive been at it pretty hard lately. My Wyoming hunts are now less than 2 months away. Ive been working on cardio on the stair machine pictured and a treadmill. Workouts have been fairy consistently as follows: Monday: 45 pounds on my Outdoorsmans Atlas Trainer doing 20 minutes on the stair machine pictured followed by 20 minutes on a treadmill set on an incline. Follow this up with chest and triceps workout. Tuesday: swim laps freestyle, currently at 2,600 yards Wednesday: repeat Mondays cardio followed by biceps and back workout Thursday: 2,600 yards swimming Friday: repeat Mondays cardio followed by full leg workout Saturday and Sunday: swimming if I am up to it, otherwise rest days. Before my hunts, Id like to get my cardio days up to 30 minutes on the stair machine followed by 30 minutes on an incline treadmill with 70 lbs on the Atlas Trainer. Id like to get my swimming up to 3,600 yards. I have been watching what I eat as well. I am not seeing a lot of weight loss, likely due to muscle gain, but I am definitely feeling stronger and slimming up. Started in mid June at 225 lbs, down to 208 lbs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turbo Report post Posted August 23, 2018 I start laying off the upper body weights a month or so prior to bow season. Wanting the neurological memory ("muscle memory) to works its magic effectively, so something like a bench press session once a week, pullups, some curls, etc... However, I do more kettlebell swings and light squats, calf raises and core exercise for the mtn hunts, along with slow cardio, some hikes. Brought the poundage down on my favorite bow from 53 pounds at 25" to 46 pounds at 25". So much easier on the shoulder. Shooting stickbow, and many of us wack our rotator cuffs. Noticing the smallest hints of an injury is something I try to pay attention to as I move through the calendars. Chiropractor visits, stretching, and generally chilling out, just to be more aware. If an opportunity arises, be chill, make the shot, that is focus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
