Guest guest Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 That IS a workout! I used to backpack and just walking around the woods is enough of a workout without all the heavy stuff and moving the stand. Wow! Black Friday workout It wasn't walking through the malls, that's for sure! I hate crowds and I hate shopping. I do 95% of my non-grocery shopping online.I did another non-traditional workout today. I went traipsing about in the woods for about 3 hours. DH and I move our tree stands to a new location, and that was not exactly easy. With a pack, a shotgun, very heavy clothing (it's below freezing today) and big boots, I felt like I had done an obstacle course. If any of you walk in the woods, you know it's not just a stroll down a path -- fallen limbs, briers, soft soil and such make it an unnatural gait, where you have to lift your (heavy booted) foot high on each step. Plus carrying the tree stand metal. We did get in about an hour of hunting after moving the stands, and that was a nice time in the woods! (Didn't see anything, but we really didn't expect to after all the noise we made taking down and relocating the stands.)I'm glad I was in shape for today, or this would have killed me!Indyrose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
