Yeah I was playing you there. I am working out with Kettlebells and by this June I should be able to do the crossfit and kettlebell.
As I was headed out the door this morning I looked into my garage where I keep my 'at home' ammo and was looking at the sheer volume you listed. When I was in Afghanistan I carried a basic load of eight mags with # nine in the rifle, a M9 with a mag in the well and two on my kit and that was more than enough to keep me going until I either won the fight or got back to my truck. The way you wrote your post lead me to believe you were carrying all of it on your body and/or in your pack. That is a lot of weight to carry and that is without your other gear, food and water. The dirt bike/yoto option is my preferred mode of transportation.

Edit: Maybe we should have a thread dedicated to "kit" (Chest rigs/vests/LBE etc...) to help those who are learning for the first time.
