[QUOTE="jimss, post: 2146385, member: 66919"] I am super fortune to have a physically challenging job where I work outside in the same type of country and elevation where I hunt. The closer your workouts are to doing the same thing you'll be doing in the field the better off you'll be! As an example, if you can wear a 50 lb pack and hike sidehills without trails on a regular basis you're legs, lungs, back, arms, etc will be ready to do the same thing during hunting season. I also am fortunate to live close to where I usually hunt. In the off season I spend hours upon hours scouting which not only prepares me with great knowledge of the country but also gets me physically in shape to hunt the same exact country. Obviously this is impossible for many people but I would still recommend trying to wear load up a pack and spend time hiking and climbing the roughest terrain near your home. [/QUOTE]
