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

2020-03-25 13:33:35 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:35:03 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:36:15 UTC  

Because you've done it

2020-03-25 13:36:28 UTC  

yeah....

2020-03-25 13:36:46 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:37:08 UTC  

imma deff look into it ty my man

2020-03-25 13:38:27 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:42:45 UTC  

i too used those in my boy scout days

2020-03-25 13:43:22 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:45:03 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:45:10 UTC  

might look into them and send some options

2020-03-25 13:46:57 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:47:25 UTC  

snugpack tent and down bag

2020-03-25 13:47:38 UTC  

also not optimal

2020-03-25 13:48:02 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:49:05 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:49:50 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:50:36 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:52:03 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:52:39 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:53:31 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:55:46 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 13:56:32 UTC  

hear hear to that

2020-03-25 13:59:49 UTC  

what do y'all use to stretch

2020-03-25 14:58:26 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 16:00:39 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 16:02:10 UTC  

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

2020-03-25 16:05:05 UTC
