Some old one from my boy scout days lmao. I have been looking into the therma rest ones tho

@thedarkness05 lookin like a double-wide surprise..god daaaayum

honestly might just buy a yoga mat and spray coat it its sad but ask me how i know it works

Because you've done it

yeah....

But seriously, I hear good things about the therma rest. Althou the issue is that they fold, not roll, so

imma deff look into it ty my man

i just have one of those little packable air mattresses inside, probably 8 inches by 4 inches diameter, only weighs maybe a pound, never considered just throwing a therma rest on there

i too used those in my boy scout days

how does your air mat hold up? ive been looking into those as well but tbh idk what quality materials are puncture proof and i know thats a big concern

i get it's more of a civ thing, it's just what I have on hand. As long as you just use it in the tent or whatever sleep system you're running punctures shouldn't be too much of an issue. Buy quality, I'll admit I haven't done virtually any research on the best options

might look into them and send some options

my pack is an Eberlestock Lo Drag with the rifle scabbard and all that, it's really durable but I've been looking into some of the mystery ranch ones to upgrade

snugpack tent and down bag

also not optimal

Finna might have to sceenshot some of this for my notes later

imagine they made a goon multi-purpose tarpaulin that was thermally insulated for both warmth and FLIR...

Welp lets get to the drawing board we gotta make some stuff up fast

Also for real ty to both @Bard qnd @thedarkness05 you guys are legit waterfalls of info love learing from u both <3

i'll admit I'm pretty new to using this stuff in any "serious capacity" but I know quality brands of equipment from either personal recommendation or limited experience

like the lowa's for example were from a green beret friend of mine who is a guru on boots, tried salomons too and I wasn't suuper impressed

but they are really nice and I know a lot of people use them so I can't criticize

Foot shape is a massively underrated in intel thats true, in all reality its all behind what comforms to that specific person my friend has had interceptors for 5 years now and his lasted him through fire academy training and casual work and i mean hell if it works then price shouldnt matter

hear hear to that

what do y'all use to stretch

Im lucky enough to be pretty limber so leg streatches are just hands on stuff but rubber bands for upper body and you can also utilize them with chest work outs as well i havent figured anything out for my back yet

Fit Goal: To be in good condition for the boog without my joints shutting down

I don't have specific numbers because #1 I don't have access to a gym anymore and #2 Standard weightlifting numbers have little bearing on overall cardiovascular and combat fitness
