Well, I've decided to lose 30 lbs and improve physical condition for 2010. I'm at 200, but by archery I want to be at 170 and in top shape to hike in to the honey holes, climb the tree, and have enough left in me to hike out with a deer. Last season I planned my hunts closer to the vehicle. I want to have more opportunities.
Anybody plan on getting better physical shape for the primary purpose of getting deeper into the deer's habitat to be more successful?

My furthest stand is a mile walk. Id like to get down to 220, not just for hunting but having more energy in general.

I'm always trying to get in better shape and lose weight, but once you get older than 30 it gets harder and harder!

Staying in shape is the reason I started bird hunting here in the mtns, then following it with turkey season in the mtns. During the summer I run almost every morning with my bird dogs to keep me and them in shape. I will not ever let myself get out of shape, barring any unfortunate accidents or illness.

I stay in good shape year round. I run 4 days a week, and do some form of core workout 2 days, hike at least once on weekends, fly fish the mountains 2-3 days a week in the summer, hunt 2 days a week in the fall and winter. There's a good chance I'm going to run an ultra marathon this September.
