well sir,
while I realize it aint the same as running uphill for miles at boot camp or doing the daily morning routines of getting exercised by our CO's, That CAF book I had and wish I could put my hands on it, was pretty tough.
It would definitely help get anyone in shape and build stamina. I am pretty sure it was not intended for older geezers like you and me but there are somethings in it I could do like the basic pushups, situps, squat thrusts, etc. I did them about ten years ago when I was feeling a bit out of shape and had this idea that I could could remedy that by doing this routine. It worked.
AS you well know, anytime anyone that has a little seasoning on them, should start out gradually so they don't injure muscles or tendons.
I hope Fiz accomplishes what he has set his sights on. Some good exercise even if not for real long, but done daily, will help anyone.. Even me.
Unfortunately, between my articial joints and the arthritis in the others that have not yet been replaced but are on a waiting list, I limit myself to just walking as much as I can before wearing out. My stamina really sucks right now. I know I need to build it but then when I walk too much I wind up reaggravating mmy right hip and knee which then makes me immobile for a couple days.
Anyway, go at it Fiz and don't stop. Start off SLOWLY. BUILD UP GRADUALLY. You are not trying out for the military but getting some exercise and in a little better shape is a great thing.
Have a wonderful day everyone.
