Tell me about it! Seriously, though, for some of these young bucks the goal of conditioning is "simply" to get to a high enough fitness level to be successful at SFAS. For me, it is to get to that level with the knowledge that I can maintain it without constant overuse injuries. This means gradual improvements in joint strength and extra focus on flexibility and strength throughout the entire range of motion. If I can't pull all that together, I'll need to find another way to serve my country. In the meantime, I'm working on my gills.
