  1. I'm not opposed to making friends, the last thing we want is the other two teams teaming up against us.
  2. Week 2 - Jedi Week. Wednesday: (not a very exciting day..) Food log complete +1 point Handstand Practice - 2/4. Total Points: 36 Points.
  3. I'm not saying we're easily the best team. But we're easily the best team.
  4. Today I finally took the plunge and ordered a pair of Xero shoes (the Ipari Prio). I've liked the look of them and the company's ideals for a long time but have been put off by the £70 price tag. I know people spend upwards of £100 on worse shoes, but I've personally never spent more than £50 on shoes before. They seem like my ideal workout shoes though, so I'm going for it. I'll probably do some sort of review as well for anyone interested. Week 2 - Jedi Week. Tuesday: Food log complete +1 point Brushed the dog's teeth +1 point Workout: 20 minutes on the stationary bike. +1 point Handstand Practice - 2/4. Crow pose and wall walks. Total Points: 35 Points.
  5. I guess guys called Steve are just really good at crashing planes containing devastating superweapons? I also really liked this movie, and my GF was stoked on it, so that's great.
  6. I am ridiculously proud of my calluses, doesn't seem weird to me. Although I am kinda weird...

  10. Very productive day, ticked off a major fitness goal and two of the bonus adulting tasks! Which puts me nicely ahead on points for the week. Week 1 - Ninja Week!

  13. I find this is usually to do with weak hip flexors, but everybody is different and it's often surprising what body part is the cause of problems.
  14. If nothing else, I'm following for that sick pun.
  15. Following! Stephen Amell is so badass, maybe I should watch Arrow..
  16. After a £265 dental bill, the dog's teeth will be getting a lot of attention! To be fair, all the brushing in the world wouldn't have stopped him breaking a tooth and getting an infection, but still... His insurance doesn't cover dental care. Still sitting on 8:04 for the mile. The plan is Mon/Wed/Sun for the run days, although I won't cry about it if I have to go into the next week.
  17. Four themes, 100 points. Carrying on from last challenge, I'll be sticking to the points format. I've tweaked things a little bit to make some areas more challenging and to bring up performance in weaker areas. The main difference is that I'm going to be aiming to log everything I eat/drink in a notebook rather than posting main meals on here. This will be more beneficial for tracking, and forces me to focus on other tasks to earn points. I'm also doing weekly themes! Completing the criteria for each week will earn extra points. The goal is to inject a little bit of extra skill work during the week. Week 1 - Ninja Week: Practice rolls/cartwheels for at least 5 minutes, four times this week. +3 points. Week 2 - Jedi Week: Practice handstands for at least 5 minutes, four times this week. +3 points. Week 3 - Spider-man Week: Practice grip training (for climbing buildings, of course) for 5 minutes, four times this week. +3 points. Week 4 - Assassin Week: Run a mile for time, three times this week. +3 points. + Points Do a workout. +1 point. Brush the dog's teeth. +1 point. Complete an adulting task. +1 point. Bonus Adulting Tasks. - These will be worth 1 point for adulting in addition to their individual point values. Transfer money into my (currently unused) high interest savings account. +1 point. Set up a direct debit or payment line to that account from my main account. +2 points. Find (and move to) a new mobile data plan. +2 points. Fill in the small hole in bedroom wall. +2 points. Fix broken guitar hanger. +2 points. Complete food log for the day. +1 point. Be out of bed before 7:30 AM. +2 points. Job search, at least 20 minutes. +2 points. Finish reading a book. +2 points.
