Snake Keepers are Jacked!!

Hello everyone!!

I have seen a lot of the picture threads and wanted to start another one. Besides my love of snakes and animals, I love fitness!! I was curious to see how many of my fellow snake keepers share the same love I do. There are so many people running tuff-mudders, doing extreme sports, and doing amazing things, I figured why not start a picture thread of everyone in fitness action!! :strong:

About eight months ago, on a political forum I frequent, someone posted a link to Viper Keeper.

The link featured Elvis, the cobra. I started clicking around on other videos, and found snake bytes, etc. Those are high energy videos, so, eventually, I was using them to work out. 'Fit' was especially good with Dave Palumbo videos. On one interview, Palumbo is talking with Vincent Russo and exclaims, "Don't you think snakes and muscles just go together?!"

Yes, they do.

" Snakes and muscles" Couldn't agree more!

This confuses me?? haha :confuzd:

Yeah, I work out too. I've just been resting between sets for 2 years.

hahaha I actually laughed at my screen on that one Jhill :partyon: ....I will say though I did not mean just lifting weights....it could really be anything physical.....hiking....mountain biking......military stuff.....anything at all....just seeing what people were into in the world of fitness.

I'll jump on board. :) Serious hiker, also love running, yoga and lifting.

I was allot heavier before. I had a rough patch when my mom was sick and I was taking care of her I went into a deep depression and gained a lot of weight. Sadly she passed away (smokers quit I promise you don't want your kids to watch you go out the way we had to watch her it will mess them up). Any way after she passed I went back to work but had no car so I was walking to and from started to lose some weight and though let's make this a thing. Now I have lost over 110 lbs total. I stopped trying you lose weight and am now trying to turn the rest into muscle. But I'm just getting started I'm not going back to the place I was in before ever.

I am luck enough to have a national park only a few miles from my home. I go weekly. :) A three tier waterfall does sound amazing! Jealous!

Awesome!, if you don't mind me asking what national park?? I know I got lucky. I would have never found the place if my family growing up did not go camping there. We have been going for at least 3 generations.

Arkansas Post National Memorial. Its relatively small but it has excellently maintained trails and an abundance of wildlife. It's fantastic for running.

I live in the "Natural State" so there are a ton of hiking options close by.

Thats so awesome! I live in MA and we have miles and miles and miles of unbelievable mountain bike trails. Im originally from a major city, but now I live way outside and I love living near the woods.

I climb trees for a living. Keeps me in decent shapehttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11...30ff5871ca.jpg

I've lived in large cities before, did not like it. Mountain bike trails would be a blast! We don't have so many close by, but there are a number under construction.

Man I bet! When more get up and going I'm sure I'll invest in a good bike.

Hey when you go shopping for a bike, don't hesitate to ask me anything if you have questions. I know bikes like the back of my hand (been seriously riding and traveling all over the country to ride for 10 plus years) and love helping people pick out there first mountain bike!

Awesome! I'll keep that in mind. Unfortunately it will probably be a bit before I even look at them. :(

All good!! Ill be happy to help when the time comes!


Anymore fitness people of the world??!

You all natty bruh?

If your asking me (pic of the bench press and the dog).....yes, yes I am 100% natty.
