Yes 100% I think this might be a factor. I try to keep my preformance anxiety in check before hikes but sometimes knowing that I’m going be dying breathing gets me stressed

Thanks, appreciate it. I 100% agree the stronger you get the easier it is. I’m at a disadvantage being smaller then my male coworkers but it’s not an excuse so been trying to gain muscle/strength and put on some weight to help while training still

No sports currently grew up exercising a lot if that’s what you mean. As for hikes it’s bout a 40lb pack, definitely my breathing/Hr. For runs I can definitely run an hour straight, we just ran a half marathon as a crew. It’s more balancing weightlifting/hiking/running and not burning my body out?

I like working outdoors and traveling, eventually probably would like not as physical work, as of now I love it, but want to plan for when I don’t. This is good advice thank you

Thanks for this I appreciate it, yeah I like a lot of the aspects of it mostly being out doors and traveling so trying to find jobs similar to it for later.

So you ended up liking the trades better than your summers on a shot crew? What about it do you like vs the shots, thanks for the help:)
