I thought you guys might be interested in this, I found it in my copy of Muscle & Fitness, a magazine I sometimes purchase. It is a letter from a Sikh that is in Jammu & Kashmir and it shows that no matter what you have avaivable you can work out!

Being in the army and presently posted in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, we are constantly fighting militancy here. However, this has not deterred us from finding ways to do our workouts and keep ourselves fit. We've managed to construct a gym purely from the waste scattered around our post - things like ammunition boxes, broken bricks, mud, pipes and tin sheets. Since we can't do conventional physical training, this little gym has proved to be a great morale-booster.

And here is a picture of them... he's third from the left:

Whatever your feeling on Jammy and Kashmir, I think its cool that people can juryrig a gym if they have the motivation to work out, and it doesn't matter where you are. It was cool too that the guy sent this to the magazine and they published it! Anyway, I think this proves we should all work on staying in shape! :)

No sorry - there was only that one pic in the magazine. The guy writes about some of the things they used to make the gym in his letter but no more. They probably have some weights, or if not they use other things to substitute for them.

the only guy who is actually built is the guy on the left...there are fuck loads of trees there so all they have to do is find a branch and pull up their own body weight...and press ups u can do on the floor

damn the guy on the left is in real good shape with 6-pack n all. im guessing they dont even get the "recommended" nutrition like say 170-200 gm of protein with tons of meat and those protein shakes. im impressed.

hell i like it coz its all about functional strength innit. a soldier doesnt care about lookin good in bed. he cares about being tough enough to live to make it back to his bed. looks dont matter, i bet these guys invest hardcore in their actual strength

those guys will definitely put an emphasis on strength training and muscular endurance training as opposed to mass building. they have very different needs for their bodies than regular meatheads trying to get ass.
