Anyone coming across this training portion of ELKSHAPE just please be aware that this is what I do to stay in shape for life, for CrossFit, and for hunting with a bow. I train 4-5 days a week, usually 3 on, 1 off, 2 on, and 1 off. I don't want to be just fit inside a box or gym, but be fit for anything life throws at me. I don't do my own programming, that way I avoid biased training and do a variety of things including things I suck at. I try to eliminate chinks in my armor by making my weaknesses strengths. I personally excel at long workouts, most gymnastic movements, and running... so a large part of my training revolves around becoming stronger and for conditioning I do a great deal of interval pieces. I try to shoot my bow several times a week and eat clean and consistent for the most part. If you have questions, send them to dan@elkshape.com monday 12/14/15 1.
