Tyrion Lannister Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 A little back-story! May 21 is my birthday,and I set a goal on April 21 to do the following things before May 21: 1.Complete 25 push ups in a single workout 2.Complete 20 assisted chin ups in a single workout 3.Complete a plank of 1 minute in a single workout 4.Compose a full cover of a song on my iPad.(I did "A sky full of stars-Coldplay" ) 5.Register for my TOEFL exam and complete it. And I vowed to myself that if I completed all of these,I'l gift myself an electric guitar,and post this achievement here in NF,and keep posting from now on after having gone off the radar after creating the account.(And I just ordered the electric guitar online) It's only May 17 and I've already completed all 5 of them today ..(I did the plank for almost a minute and 30 seconds )) These are my next set of challenges which I'l complete by June 10: 1.Complete 35 push ups in a single workout. 2.Complete 24 assisted chin ups. 3.Complete a plank of a minute and 50 seconds in a single workout. 4.Compose 3 full cover songs on my iPad. 5.Start the 100 scale guitar challenge and complete at least 20.(basically,it's about playing a guitar scale continuously for 100 times). I'm already way too happy because I made a commitment to myself and kept it:) More good things in the days to come,I hope . I'l keep you all posted. 3 Quote Link to comment

I pushed the limits a tad too far with my pushups. So I got tired during the chin-ups and plank. Overall,a happy improvement 1 Quote Link to comment

Haha, this is a huge inspiration for me to keep pushing as well, since I'm also working on my push ups and planks. Today I hit 20 push ups, and so far my best single plank is 50 seconds (though that was a few days ago, and I've been training with specific timed sets since then, so I suspect my overall time has improved considerably). 1 Quote [Currently training for the Hunger Games] Captain's (Battle) Log • Challenge Log Link to comment

HellBound Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Congrats! Hope you had a good birthday. Also, she's a beaut. Do you mind me asking how much she set you back? The most I've spent on a guitar was £300. Quote Link to comment
