DOD makes military personnel take an online physical health assessment that deals with pretty much what you are talking about. and the more I talk to people the more I find that pretty much everyone 'feels' that way...but mentally or physically they are younger for some reason at least half the time. Example, Myself; Male, 25yo - PHA age 56

^ ^ Now that's how you walk off the job! While in Afghanistan we had a sniper that was giving us trouble, long and short of it was we found him and he is no longer a problem. But hidden with his weapons in the floor was a WWII Italian bayonet! MINE! Then it got confiscated when I tried to bring it back stashed inside my duffle bag

Oh yeah...you can probably guess what I do by the name, but I try to work out at least twice a day when I can. I mainly focus on cardio in the mornings and do targeted muscle groups in the afternoons. Weekends are two-a-day cardio sessions or hill runs. Had my iPod set up for Bluetooth to use wireless headphones a few weeks ago but I forgot to enable security on it...and somehow another guy with similar headphones got synched onto mine, I knew he did because he dropped the weights in his hands, took the headphones off and gave them to his spotter and they were both pretty shocked to hear 'Pinkie's Brew' rockin' out!

Awesome workout I discovered! But u need a buddy... 1) Person one gets in sit-up position with Person two seated on feet and hugging Person one's legs. 2) Person one executes sit-up and follows through into the standing position! 3) Repeat in increments of 10 4) cry

I noticed that in Afghanistan, even though they are a mostly undeveloped nation, they only very rarely eat meat. Most of this is due to the fact that meat is considered a novelty dish served mostly when guests are visiting or during celebrations. As a result, the average physique I saw there was trim, and lightly muscled. The preferred dishes for most meals are dependent on rice with different vegetables that can be found. If no vegetables, then just rice. I started eating a mostly Afghan diet after a few months and I saw and felt results immediately. They also have a bland, yogurt-like substance from goat or camel milk. Strange, but good with salt on top or mixed with curry. (I know, trust me on this) But don't get me wrong, Afghan Goat is delicious! 'innocent animals'? OK. Idea; before any animal is turned into steaks, chops, fillets or cuts we put them on mass trial and find them guilty of being absolutely delicious!

The best thing I've found for quick workouts is to run workouts in circuits to confuse your body into compensating for muscles you used in the last exercise. So if you just did an arm exercise, don't rest, just do a leg/ chest exercise then do another set of arms. You can do this with low weights and still get a good burn

Welcome to the herd, this is by far one of the more popular forums on my browsing history! Im sure it woll be yours too lol

The following really happened; Afghanistan, 2012-2013 Deployment We were pulling Hot Gun (Sitting on the mortar system waiting for missions) and in the middle of our 12 hour shift, it was about 0130, when we heard what we thought were footsteps on the roof. I walked out of the bunker with my NVGs and gave the area a quick scan, nothing. A few minutes later we heard it again, I went out and looked and once again nothing. The third time this happened I was pretty sure that someone was screwing with us, I went up on the roof this time and hid behind the sandbags. I heard the footsteps coming towards me so I jumped out and what I saw was just a black shadow (still wearing NVGs) I walked up and reached out to grab whoever it was. That's when I lost my balance, fell off the bunker, and landed on my buddy who was staring straight up at what he described as "A giant black shadow with glowing red eyes" We saw this 'shadow' all through deployment...freaky

Rockin out to tunes while I get my Skyrim on lol
