I was on CHA for Op Mobile, and managed to put a daily average of 2 miles on the treadmill for 6 months. Cutting out french-fries, and dessert while at sea, combined with the jogging helped me lose almost 30 pounds.
If you're motivated, you can stick with a PT program. Even at sea.

Pat in Halifax said:For someone who is 46 and another who is N/A, I think you guys know better. I would like to think if you were face to face talking about gyms on ships, this wouldn't have gone south the way it did-And none of this "But he started it" crap. This was a good thread and many have asked a similar question. There was (is) potential for some good info exchange here especially with the new CF XPress testing. Why don't we do just let people discuss that.
