What the thread found

• Core strength and leg training are the most frequently mentioned priorities, achieved through weight training, bodyweight exercises, and stair climbing.
• Cardiovascular endurance can be built through running, cycling, stationary bikes, swimming, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and intensive cycling classes with emphasis on leg strength.
• Mobility work, stretching, and resistance band exercises targeting the lower back help maintain flexibility and prevent injury; hybrid training combining running and weighted lifting is effective.
• Climbing, ice hockey, and skiing serve as complementary sports that develop leg strength and mobility while providing active recovery.
• Regular practice with the rig itself is an essential component of maintaining operational fitness.
• Selecting an activity one genuinely enjoys increases the likelihood of consistent practice, which is more important than the specific training method chosen.
