Have you maintained your physical excersize since transitioning out of the military and if so, how have you done so?

adjusting to civilian life has many challenges and it becomes easy to let PT slip. How have you managed this area of your life?

I do 3-4 eyelid flutters every morning, move on to 2-3 progressive crunches trying to get out of bed, next is 2 minutes of side of bed toe touches as this will be the only time I am even close to touching them. Then it is a recon shuffle to the head, next is hand to hand combat with my razor and face, as well as pugle stick training with the tooth brush. I take a 15 minute lap in the shower, suit up and do some basic field ration training in the kitchen. I then have a 1 hour CG PFT Ultimate showdown, mad max road ralley into work. Allot of training happening in that hour. I then do 8 hours of subservient wage slave repetitions before an advanced level of 1 hour CG PFT Ultimate showdown, mad max road ralley to home. I finish my pt regimen with several dozen beverage curls, and extended arm remote manipulation drills. I find that this routine done 5 times a week, keeps me in shape... considering round is a shape.

Cpl Hicks, you might want to pace yourself, sounds like you might be overdoing which could lead to an injury!

Yes, you are correct, this regimen is only for the experience veteran. I worked so hard my six pack abs became a keg.

I moved overseas and sold the cars. I walk everywhere I go and/or take the train. Just going to work and back home I'm walking about 5 miles. I also have a "green smoothie" for breakfast. By doing that I've losted 15lbs since last year. Feel free to message me for recipes.

With a list of injuries piling up, I am relegated to the elliptical. I work out five to six days a week and take the stairs (up only six flights) at work. I still lift weights, but more reps and less weight is the order of the day.
