I know this does not make any sense, but I am young, and generally pretty 'fit' in the scheme of things, I have never trained to hunt, nor done any real 'training' for 5 years or so. Generally my job has kept me fit(various guiding jobs/farm work etc)
Recently I have started some limited training(body weight stuff and weighted sand bag), only pretty minimal and definitely not going hard out.
BUT when I go for a walk up a hill I seem to be worse than I was before hand?
I never get sore legs, yet now I feel my legs run out of juice pretty quick?
Can weight training in some aspects be bad for hill fitness?
Change in muscle type and energy usage??
Seems counter productive I know, but thats my experience.
The only reason I want to train is to try and strengthen my knees up as to protect them long term, I am inclined to do heavy pack outs for 'fun' at times. which I know is not good.
Anyone else had this experience?
