How (often) did you train then?

Im 19. Trained hard for Marines when I was 17.5 to 18.5, but then got injured a few times and havent done any hard continuous training since. Simply been doing on and off training.

im 16 started light training when i was 14 almost 15 and i regret it because to be honest i lost all my fitness due to runners knee shin splints etc. it is worth waiting a few years. if i hadnt trained so early i would be alot fitter now. but its up to the indiviual.
